| | I'm really just goofing off here, not trying to see any of the usual touristy sights this time since I've been to most of them already, but there are a few worth a revisit (British Museum, Covent Garden, Regent Park Inner Circle). This week has mostly been about relaxing and spa treatments. Went to the Turkish baths yesterday where I did the hot, hotter, hottest rooms, then jump-out-of-your-skin icy pool cycle several times before a body scrub and falling asleep for a couple hours in one of their comfy beds.
Today I continued being totally useless (unless being decorative counts) and had an eyebrow threading (best arches ever for only five pounds), a haircut, and my first leg waxing ever. The leg waxing didn't hurt like the threading, but the attendant swore I didn't need it because my leg hairs are so fine. Hm. That would explain why it feels like the hairs were just broken off, because it still feels slightly stubbly. I get much better results from shaving. Oh well. At least the haircut looks GREAT.
Watched a dude in pink hotshorts juggle a chainsaw on a unicycle in Covent Garden. Man, that guy was a riot. "Kids, if your parents don't give you at least a tenner to give the crazy man in the pink shorts, they don't really love you. Just kidding. You know that's a joke right? It means you're really adopted. . . And I'm your real father."
Some Asian dude (his card says he's the Malaysian minister of finance?) asked to take a photo with me today, except his English was so heavily-accented, I thought he wanted me to take the photo for him. Ok, so maybe I'm guilty of stereotyping too sometimes. I'm so ready to go home and hear familiar Okie accents again.
