A much more peaceful night's sleep, thank god. Wow, I was a mess early yesterday, just because my AD had worn off. That's fucking scary. So I can't function without them, it seems. I do know that I've only been able to function "normally" since I've been on AD's, which has been for three years now. It's my shrink's opinion that I'll always need some kind of assistance -- and right now medication is what's available -- because my brain never learned how to regulate all those chemicals during my development.
Okay. Yesterday I went to get a pedicure, because (a) I've never had one and I was curious to see what they're like; (b) I want my feet to look nice for the trip; and (c) just because. The pedicure was nice, really nice. They had a foot bath that filled and emptied for each customer, was nice and hot and had lots of jets. The chair was one of those massage chairs, which at first was a bit rude because it kept poking me in the butt until I adjusted the controls. The foot massage was divine. I think I'll have to go regularly because it's the only way I can get foot rubs and oh boy how I've missed them. They didn't pumice as much as I usually do, though, which surprised me, but they did a job on the cuticles, which I usually ignore. Unfortunately I got talked into a manicure and an eyebrow wax too. While the cuticles on my hands needed much attention, I hate nail polish. By the time I got home it was all dented and fucked up so I took it off (I've got nail polish remover on hand because of all my dolly stuff). My eyebrows, in my humble opinion, look fine au natural because they're not too thick and well-shaped. When she suggested a wax, I thought a slight touch-up might be in order, and I told her not to take off much, but now my brows are much thinner than I like. What a dumbass, I'm never doing that again. They'll grow back -- hopefully. Anyway, if I make pedicures a regular thing, I won't be talked into that other crap again.
And thus, my ventures into the world of femininity. Quatsch!
Newman's carrying around one of those rabbit-fur mice. It's so cute!
Holy crap, I've got so much to do. I still have to pack. As a result of my emotional meltdown and/or the advent of my period, my face has broken out -- crap. I'm taking an arsenal of tampons.

My eyebrows are permanently too short, width-wise, on both sides. I'm not sure if that's due to bad waxing or plucking, but I haven't ever mastered brow pencil so they stay too short. Shrug.
As for manis, I agree - I hate polish. But pedis are, indeed, divine. Glad you liked.
