Spa day

A pretty productive day today. I hit the gym in the morning and then headed out to Kanebo at Starhill Gallery for my monthly massage and facial (thanks to Ross' Christmas present!).

As you can see from the photo - life is good! At this point, I have my peel off mask on which was preceeded by cleansing, steaming, picking and machining. It was followed by more cleansing, an eye treatment, another mask and a massage. Not bad considering this all came after a 2 hour hot stone massage!

The only downside is I walk out of there looking like a bit of a slime ball with oil on my body and in my hair so I pretty much headed straight home.

Tonight we caught up with our neighbours Brian and Sonja who I hadn't seen for a month. We tried a new Thai restaurant (well, new for us) called Bangkok Jazz at Chulan Square. The food was pretty good although it was fairly tame spice wise. We were home by 9pm but apparently after 10 they have live music - we'll have to try out next time.

Last day of the first month of my blog

31 days down and the blog is part of my daily ritual. However, I can see that remembering to take a photo each day may be a struggle.

Today's photo is of my friends' (Stan and Kate) cat, Murphy. He recently had his canine (should that be feline?) teeth removed so now his lips curl up under his gums sometimes. It's a classic thing to see! He's not doing too bad for 12 though and really does not seemed phase at all - he just looks at you to say "What? What are you laughing at?".

I ended up at Stan and Kate's place after a productive morning shopping in the city. I am now officially going to have to call Air Asia and ask them to upgrade my baggage quota!

Kate, Luke and I chilled out in the afternoon and I managed to play almost every Wii game that Luke had. Just as beer o'clock rolled around Stan came home and we ordered Thai for dinner. First time I had ever had yellow barramundi curry!

We watched the tennis which was a bit dull so resorted to critiquing players physiques and dress sense - much more rewarding. A relaxing Saturday.
