PAGE FOUR DANCE!!

There's construction at a major intersection here.

They're creating a round-about at two different entrances to the freeway and it's going to take months...and it's already been going on for months!

There are roundabouts going in everywhere in Minnesota, too.

Round and round she goes.
And where she stops,
Nobody knows.

Someone should write an Ode to Roundabouts.

I had a new (to me) experience this afternoon.

singdaw · « **Reply #97 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:52:34 PM »

I got my first professional pedicure.

singdaw · « **Reply #98 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:52:48 PM »

Talk about a fish-out-of-water experience.

singdaw · « **Reply #99 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:53:05 PM »

I was the only male client. There were about 25 female customers.

singdaw · « **Reply #100 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:53:22 PM »

All of the workers were young Asian women.

To my helper's credit, she did not run screaming from the salon when I first presented my feet.

singdaw · « **Reply #102 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:54:18 PM »

Which she would have had every right to do; they were a mess.

singdaw · « **Reply #103 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:54:35 PM »

But we were done in half an hour without any undue drama.

singdaw · « **Reply #104 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:54:54 PM »

I declined to get painted a color.

singdaw · « **Reply #105 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:55:34 PM »

About one quarter of the way through, she pushed a button (or inserted a coin) and the chair started giving me a massage.

singdaw · « **Reply #106 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:55:45 PM »

That was... interesting.

singdaw · « **Reply #107 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:56:13 PM »

They take a card for the pedicure, but not for the tip. Which had not been explained to me in advance.

singdaw · « **Reply #108 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:56:29 PM »

Fortunately, I had some cash on me. I usually don't.

And the water company is finally accepting their responsibility for the water leak. Sadly it means tearing up the road.

Groan, but at least they are fixing it.

singdaw · « **Reply #110 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:57:14 PM »

And overall, I think it is well worth the money, and I'll probably go back and have it done again. I don't know what the normal interval is - three months?

The fire alarm went off. So irritating.

I'll bet that JB was not best pleased.

I would think not.

singdaw · « **Reply #112 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:57:52 PM »

Next time shouldn't be quite as much of a production.

singdaw · « **Reply #113 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:58:43 PM »

I hope.

Vibes they finish soon.

I mean, how badly can my feet go wrong in a short time?

singdaw · « **Reply #116 on:** June 21, 2023, 12:59:25 PM »

And thus endeth my adventure.

I found out Keith did Wordle in two today when I read the news on my Facebook page
