Girls' Weekend a Bust
Girls' Weekend did not go as planned. First, Mandaray backed out due to a wedding or somesuch (nice excuse) and then there were two.
Then getting knocked up threw a kink in the girls' weekend. We had plans to drive up Friday, check into the hotel, get a little liquored, go to bed, sleep in, have a spa afternoon, eat a nice lunch, take a nap, go out to dinner, get liquored up again, and stay up talking and laughing. Well pregos can't do all that. So we changed it to driving up Saturday, having a spa afternoon, checking into the hotel, taking a nap, going out to dinner, staying up laughing, etc. Well the spa was closed that weekend. So now what?
We decided to forego Weston altogether and have a spa day here in town. After calling all over the place we found a salon that could fit us both in for haircuts, manicures, pedicures, facials, and massages. We would be seated next to each other for all services except the facials and massages. It was going to be great.
We met for a so so lunch and headed over. Things went downhill from there. I got in for my haircut, Ashley had to wait. Then she got started on hers and I was onto my manicure. We were at the manicure tables together for about 5 minutes, then I was off to my pedicure. Her manicure was finally done and I was off to my facial (which by the way was the best part) while she had a massage. Then she had a facial while I had a massage. Then I sat next to her while she got a pedicure. And last but not least, I got a second haircut since the she mullet I received earlier wasn't doing it for me. So I had two really bad haircuts and no time with my friend.
And the greatest part was.... they offered Ashley 20% off for her inconvenience. Me? They offered nothing.
When it was time to check out the manager told me to walk away while she asked Ashley something. Turned out she offered her 20% off or 10% off for each of us. Ashley being the kind soul that she is told her to give us both the 10% off which she did.
Uh wait... why do they feel Ashley was put out but not me? And why in the hell wouldn't we both get 20% off?
Girls' Weekend, scratch that, Girls' Day 2006 blew.
Here's hoping the next one works out a little better.

That's horridable! I'm sorry it didn't work out so well for you. :( Remember that lunch at Waldo Pizza? THAT was pretty good, right?
THAT BLOWS. Although I bet the mullet was pretty hot. The massage - did they do you right?
