Feb 8thMe Day

I had a pretty stressful week the week before last.  I decided to take a me day.  I reaggravated an old rowing injury, and had a sore back, so I decided to pop a few muscle relaxers and advil, and start my day at NMTI right down the road from me in Falls Church City.  NMTI is a massage school that offers massages from current students for $35 an hour.  Its a great deal, and the worst massage I’ve ever had there was still good.  More often than not, the massage is excellent.  Its very easy to schedule your massage online.

After the massage, I stopped in palm beach tan to get some color.

After tanning, I swung by my parents house for a soak.  I poured a little Talisker Storm, and put some jazz on my portable speakers.

After the hot tub, I quickly got into the sauna to dry off and stay warm (notice the snow on the ground).

In the evening, I took the metro in DC to meet a friend at Old Ebbit Grill for the orca platter (half off during happy hour).  We also got a bottle of rose bubbly.  A couple at the next table asked what we were celebrating (assuming we were together).

We ended the evening at Shelly’s Back Room.  Had some nice cigars, and a few glasses of Blanton’s (only 9 bucks a glass, about the cheapest place to have Blantons out).

What a great day.  I’m not sure how I’ll be able to top it.
