oh YEAH, spa day!

I was in hot,warm or cool water, or lounging in a hot room, or a warm room, or a cool room, or a sauna, or a steam room, for about six hours today.

I had my entire body scrubbed, in a way that it probably hasn't been scrubbed since, well, forever, for almost an hour.

I got purty toes now.

I had a delicious Korean meal.

I spent a long relaxing day with some old and some new friends, took about seven showers, and just generally enjoyed being naked and at home in my own skin.

Among us we had one mastectomy, one lumpectomy, stretch marks, Caesarian scars, a plethora of old and new tattoos, and the entire gamut of curves and sags and flaws and assets.

Women - all of us, regardless of our scars or stories - are beautiful. And that means me too.
