Yesterday, my best friend Liza and I took a mental health day. Well, I took a mental health day and Liza took a mental health half day. Clearly, this is because I am crazier than her.
We met up after lunch and headed out to Acton to Moodz Day spa to indulge in some massages. Because, you know, when you’re about to buy a house, it is important to make frivolous purchases, like massages. I steadfastly maintain that the knot in my left shoulder that was so large that the masseuse remarked on it is all the justification that I need. Plus, I had a coupon for $10/off. So bite me. :p
I went to the gym during lunch on Tuesday and then we had a two hour long ultimate frisbee practice after work. So, to say that I was sore yesterday would be a bit of an understatement. It’s an odd sensation to be sore all over your entire body and to be completely relaxed at the same time. “I feel great! But I hurt!” I can only imagine that, without my massage yesterday, I would be unable to move today. Because I’m pretty close to that point as it is. (But the knot, it’s so much smaller!)
After our massages, we headed to the cafe across the street, where we purchased the following cupcakes:

I bought the lion for Kristian, because he looks like a lion when he yawns (see?) and it’s totally adorable. Liza bought a bear for herself and I didn’t want to be left out. So I bought one for myself as well (and I wonder why I’m not losing any weight). Seriously, are they not the cutest cupcakes ever? Also, there is your proof, Kevin, that I will eat things that have a face.
I was good and saved my cupcake to eat after dinner. Mostly, because I knew that if Kristian ate his cupcake in front of me and I didn’t have one of my own, I was going to steal some of his. And he always gets mad when I do that. I have no idea why. Really. Boys are so silly.
If you were going to take a day off of work to de-stress, what would you do?
I want a bear cupcake!
I would take Edie for a nice long walk. If the weather was nice of course.
This reminded me that I have a spa coupon too! At least I think I do, I guess I should make sure my husband didn’t throw it away.
Those cupcakes are adorable. A co-worker made dark chocolate cupcakes yesterday, and I ate two. I have no willpower when it comes to cupcakes.
ooh a massage and cupcakes….sounds like the perfect afternoon!
I need to go get myself a massage sometime (I have never had one). Cute cupcakes!
Yay, that sounds like such a nice day. 🙂
Super cute cupcakes too. Do you think they make bacon-faced cupcakes? 😉
I haven’t had a facial in way too long and that’s a great way to de-stress. I’d also enjoy going to the beach again like I did last Sunday and spending the day swimming and reading.
Now I want a cupcake — with or without a face. With or without chocolate is not a viable choice. Must. Be. Chocolate.
