That is cool. That way no one could hear me scream through the ticklish torture of having someone touch my feet and I wouldn't be so embarrassed. Tammy was laughing at me so hard (because the lady gave me a towel to bite on) that I'm surprised the lady could finish the polish on hers....

Very nice new color, Kori. I just had to wait ten pages for the subject to come around again.![]()

There is a little independent place over here by the Walmart on Austin Highway that charges about that for a pedicure ... I'd gone there for nails and they were so rough ... I definitely wouldn't recommend them.
Yeah we can oogle 2Blonde's breasts all we want, and even lick our screens, but the daughter is too young....
You get what you pay for, usually...
yeah i read it in the morning. we could very well make a book out of this.![]()
Exactly. So imagine my shock when I moved here and it was upwards of $40 on occasion.
Acrylics cost about the same in both cities; so do manicures.
Here's the choices of pedicures at the place I went yesterday. I had the Marine one.
Basic Pedicure
45 minutes $35
Milk & Honey Pedicure
45 minutes $38
A milk & honey bath with walnut & sugar exfoliation.
Strawberries & Cream Pedicure
60 minutes $45
A soothing milk bath & strawberry seed scrub with vanilla paraffin.
Marine Pedicure
60 minutes $50
An ocean side escape with AHA callus treatment.
Stone Pedicure
75 minutes $60
Revitalize tired legs & feet while softening &smoothing.
Chocolate Bliss Pedicure
65 minutes $60
Layer upon layer of chocolate treats massaged into your skin to melt away stress & soften the skin.
You get what you pay for, usually...
Oh, I know.
And what was even worse, is it was this rather large Chinese man that talked on his cell phone (in Chinese) the whole time he was doing it...like he could have be talking about me the whole time or something.![]()
That, and he sliced my nail bed with the little electric file thing-y and proceeded to dump acetone right on it.![]()
Marine pedicure doesn't sound too sexy...
I'm not ticklish at all. But LJ is crazy ticklish. So he understands your pain.
Of course he was, don't you watch Seinfeld?
It was pretty sexy. Laying down in a dimly lit room with candles, music and trickling water.
Not like marine...salt water, sunburn & sand in your crack....

The woman speaks the truth!
Did I ever tell you that one time I swam in the ocean for 7 hours and got so bad of sunburn that people thought I had been burned in a fire (it was super disgusting burns) and they put me on pain medication because it was so bad -- and I was allergic to the pain meds and almost died.
And people wonder why I prefer to stay white now.![]()
And that's when you and LJ met and fell in love?
No. This was at least 10 years before I met LJ.
I can empathize....I had the same experience sunbathing topless (on my tummy--drunk and fell asleep) and ended up with 2nd degree burns from the back of my neck to the heels of my feet. I swelled up like a balloon, couldn't walk at all and was stuck on my tummy in bed for almost a week. That was the most painful experience ever. My back is one gigantic freckle now from that ... and considering my grandmother had 2 deadly types of skin cancer...I'm just petrified of the sun.
Fortunately, I'm not allergic to pain medicine though...I don't know if I'd have made it.![]()
Good gravy.
And we can't talk about Star Wars?![]()
Please don't tell me brotha man gets pedicures.
I love the new animated avatar SW!!! It rocks....![]()

I don't go for regular pedi's anymore, but when I did, I went to Vicky Nails in the same shopping center where HEB Marketplace is and paid $25.00 for a spa pedicure.
I went to a place while my son was at a movie with his friends a few weeks ago that was out by the Silverado 16, and I think I paid about $30.
Now Now Shoogar, wouldn't you want your Spurs ladies to have well manicured toes?![]()
