Stress about airbrush tanning

Okay, so recently we brought in airbrush tanning to our salon. It wasn't supposed to be up and running until this Saturday because I needed to practice on family and friends to make sure I could do it correctly. Well, two ladies called and were desperate to get it done today. I was freaking out, I had to somehow bullshit my way through it. (Good thing I can act), and my mom, Roland, and I worked our asses off to get the room ready. We're talking no sleep, painting non-stop, yelling at each other, major annoyances, problems, everything to discourage us, and we did get discouraged. But, finally we got the bed done by the time the ladies were going to come and get it done. I tried it on my mom, and I did a horrible job the first time, and then a good job the next time. So, I didn't really feel very confident, but I knew I had to do it. It was $50.00 after all, and our salon needs what it can get. So, the ladies came, and I airbrushed them, and granted, I secretly made a few mistakes (that they didn't know about) it still turned out well. I hope it works well for them, they were so sweet, and I got to see two good lookin' ladies nekked !! woo hoo..haha. Anyway, they gave me a $10.00 tip !! YEAH !! And said they'd be back because they loved th service. That's my day...it was a good one. I feel much better now than I did this morning.

Tired and Moody !!




Well, my plan for the day was to paint the basement of my salon so that it didn't look so sterile down there when people went to tan. But, I woke up just feeling blah. Then, when I saw my mom coming down the stairs, that made it worse..haha..She generally doesn't have anything really positive to say to me. So, she spoke, and instantly I was even moodier..haha. We went and got the paint, and I tried to do the best job I could to not let her know I was moody....but turned out she was tired too...so we just set the paint down in the basement and decided to do it Monday..haha. For those of you who don't know, we have recently added airbrush tanning to our list of random things we have decided to venture into. And Hutch should be getting his license here soon to do massages, but he doesn't know if that's what he wants to do or not. I guess we'll see once he starts. Oh, and Regina Spektor is awesome, and gorgeous !!! My mood is a lot better today, just in case anyone was scared about that...haha. I took a shower, dressed up kinda nice, and wore jewelry, so I feel very delicate..haha. Okay, I'm done rambling. Everyone have a GRAND weekend.
