It should be against the laws of blogging to have this many good days.

As predicted: I'm mostly sleeping and eating and drinking and reading and sunning.

This has been punctuated by brief outings to shop, hours of Oprah and all the home decorating shows I can possibly watch without having convulsions. Logan can usually tolerate an hour before he starts complaining...as if he doesn't like the shows!

I had my pedicure yesterday (thank you Jean!) and it was quite lovely but here's something you might not know about me: I'm extremely high strung. Having someone touch my feet is a very awkward experience for me. I don't know how to act during such a luxurious event.

So I act extremely awkward. I also giggle a lot. The eurasian man doing my feet kept telling me to "Relax" and I thought to myself, "This is as good as it's getting."

When the nice man grabbed the pumice stone and started exfoliating my feet, I nearly took his eyeball out with my extremely ticklish flailing foot. He ended up holding my foot in a choke hold while he did his job and I screamed with the overwhelming sensation. He kept saying, "Relax....."

It was all worth it though, even though he's bruised and battered. I tipped him well.

For Christmas I received a spa gift certificate and scheduled to have a pedicure (my first!) and then a body scrub-- I found out that the scrub requred me to be naked under a robe. Now THAT was awkward, trying to keep my knees shut while the toe woman was down by my feet and tickling me...

Your feet look very pretty and refreshed. I've never had a pedicure, my feet don't look so good...I'd probably scare the person who had to do it.

At least he didn't try to hug you.

p.s. Flickr's current and apt error message "Flickr is having a massage. We hope to be back in service as of 9 p.m. PST"

It looks like your left foot is having way more fun than your right foot!

Ooooh La La!

Eurasian? What's that about?

Good for you!! You know you liked it... and your toes are lovely. Enjoy the rest of your vacation!

Here in NYC, where cut-rate nail joints line the streets, I have no excuse not to turn myself over to a professional once every two weeks. But the pumicing, Jesus H. Christ. Every pedicure should come with a shot of whiskey.

Nothing like purty toes to cheer a girl up.

Beautiful feet! You had me laughing out loud with the "choke hold" comment. ROFLOL

No fair. When I get a pedicure -- one every five years -- it's always by an angry woman who likes to cut me with those tiny scissors!

I have a friend that is the same way about having her feet touched. It sucked all of the relaxation out of my last pedicure, but my God was it fun to watch.

I am so incredibly jealous of your vacation that I can hardly see straight. Oh wait, that's probably the Hard Lemonade. I am still jealous though.

Have fun.
