I finally went for a mani+pedi today after years of neglect towards my poor toenails. My fingernails are in better condition, but my toenails are in a dreadful state. They look like they have been rolled over by a steamroller and fed to the dogs... Ok, now you know how they look like (or looked like) to be exact.
Now they are covered with a fresh coat of hot, sexy, christmassy RED. ^_^ I feel like wearing short miniskirts with sandals to show them off! Of course this is all the work of the wonderful manicurist who skillfully made them the way they are now (sob...sob... they wouldn't have been like that if not for you Ms. Nikko and Ms. Voilet.. I owe you guys one!). And my fingernails are a whiff of fresh air, looking spiffy after a french manicure (did the french really invent this??).
Anyway, I think us women owe it to ourselves some pampering and TLC. I don't mind getting my feet and tired legs massaged once in a while. A facial and a body massage would be lovely too if not for the prices... But then again, I had some facials once and I definitely DID NOT enjoy it!! She was happily squeezing out my tonnes of blackheads and pimples and YEOW!!! The more she squeezed, the more they grew!!! What a waste of money! And to think that I endured it for 20 sessions!!!! I haven't tried a massage, but I'll get it someday ^^
Yes, I know it's silly to splurge on non-essential things like these (seeing that the economy is so bad right now..), but I worked hard and laboured long hours! Ok... I did not labour...... But then, still I worked my ass off! So I think my one act of indulgence is acceptable. Don't start me on the "a small nation will get fed from the combined price of your splurges" thingy. Bah...
Cheers and happy X'mas shopping!!!
