Yesterday was a pretty nice day. The day started off with me waking up early to get ready to see Brenon. Brenon's mother Casey, Summer (Devon's girlfriend), and I were going to have a girly get together at the nail salon. I was pretty excited because I had been wanting to do my nails for the longest. Whenever I do my nails at home, they never come out right or I end up messing them up later. Being that it was a girly thing as I stated before, Brenon didn't come. It was kind of weird for me being away from Brenon since the only reason I go to his house is for him, but I still had a nice time.
I really like Casey to be honest, especially since she likes me. His whole family likes me, which kind of puts a lot of pressure on me sometimes. I probably put more energy on it then I should but I don't even want to risk messing up the relationship I have acquired with his family. I'm afraid to slip up or say something innocent but instead they take it differently and start to dislike me. Excuse me for getting off topic, as usual.
Anyway, we all quickly got into the pedicure chairs which was nice. I'm glad it wasn't busy. I sat next to Casey and Summer sat on the other side of her. Our nail technicians all came and sat amongst our feet and began their work.
Let me just say this: Oh my heavens, I love when you're getting a pedicure and they massage all over your legs and feet! It's literally my favorite part about pedicures. During the massage, the technician pulled out a thin, cylinder wooden stick and she began rubbing it along my legs. It was weird because no salon I've ever been to before has done that to me, but I enjoyed it. This nail salon was just nice overall. In the water you soak your feet in, they even throw in cute, colorful, paper clipping things to float around the water. I liked it.
Finally, a male technician came to give me a gel manicure. He was nice and made conversation with me. It was my first time doing gel and it burned. I didn't know that was normal being it was my first time and all. The lady tending to my feet admired my hair and told me it was pretty. It feels good to be pampered, I must say.
Then it was time to leave and Casey paid for ALL of our mani's and pedi's. i felt so bad. I'm not the type to be fine with people spending a lot of money on me. Especially since I had my own money. His whole family is so generous and I feel bad. I feel like I owe them something for all they spend on me from the dinners, to tickets, and even mani/pedi's now. Brenon always tells me not to worry about it, but honestly I feel like a "thank you" just doesn't suffice in this situation and I should do more to show my gratitude. I don't know what yet, but I know for sure I want to do something nice for his parents in return.
Aside from a nice nail day with the girls, I spent most of my day with Brenon. I was kind of a bitch to him today just cause I was upset for my own selfish reasons but I can't help it. I have a terrible temper and I can keep and attitude all day since I'm very stubborn. He doesn't deserve attitude though. He's like the best thing that has ever happened to me and I really need to learn to talk more when something is bothering me instead of keeping it in and taking out my frustrations on others that I care about. So I'm sorry babe, cause I know you read these.
After taking a short nap, I changed my attitude and the day ended nicely between him and I. I only wish time didn't go by so fast when we are together.
Well it's almost 1AM and I'm going to six flags tomorrow so I need my rest. Sweet Dreams.
