May. 27th, 2016 11:04 amI went to West Coast Forest Medical Spa and Massage at Howe and Helmcken downtown, and it was blissful. Also, they have a special deal on right now where you can get a 90 minute massage (relaxation massage, not with an RMT) for $79, which is very good value. Not such good value that I’ll be going often, but I could justify it as a once-in-a -while expense, because a 90 minute massage at a fancy schmancy downtown spa usually costs anything between $120 and $150, which I refuse to pay.
Warning: it is not a fancy schmancy spa with lemon infused water in the waiting room, but Lynne did a fabulous job on my poor back. Which is what it’s all about, right? If I want lemon infused water, I’ll buy a damn lemon at the supermarket and cut it up myself. They also do RMT massage, acupuncture, etc. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.
And while I was walking to Howe and Helmcken, a little tyke of about 5 years old came running by, in full Captain America costume, right down to the little plastic shield. I kind of wanted to take a photo, but it looked like he and his mother were on their way to catch a bus or something, the way they were hustling. Besides, she might have said no. People can get weird about total strangers snapping pictures of their kids, for understandable reasons.
It reminds me of when we went to see Captain America: Civil War, and it was opening night, and there was a woman there dressed as Bucky, right down to the metal arm. Heaven only knows how she’d done it. I wanted to take a picture of her too, but she was deep in conversation with someone and I didn’t want to interrupt them just to say, “Awesome cosplay, can I take your photo?”
Fostering may be back on, if the kitty gets back to health. Maybe. Well, Young Miss Weaver and I aren't going anywhere, and I got a bigger litter box when I recently had to buy a new one, so it's all good no matter what happens.
