Cuba in 1.5 sleeps

I say 1.5 sleeps because we have to get up at 2am on Monday morning to get to the airport for 4.
I think I am all packed.....I know I bought WAY too many cute dresses and bathing suits (hey what can I say shopping is fun for once).
I finished up my grooming appointments today! TG
#1 I called to book a hair appointment for this morning (I wanted a treatment I get done at the Aveda hair salon I go to. It is by L'oreal....called x-tenso. It isn't quite like a Brazilian blow-up as you still keep a lot of curl and body in your hair (I have very curly hair) but all the frizz is gone, even in humidity and using a straightening iron in it is a breeze, easily cuts 3/4 of the time off of that whole procedure! AND I am told....oh we no longer do that (or anything like it...as a matter of a fact NO ONE DOES RIGHT NOW.....Some chemical in all those treatments has been pulled, as it is "really bad for you`` They told me. Then said ....Oh we will be getting a new treatment in next week, you want me to book you in for then......NEXT WEEK? Ahhhh...No....TODAY!
So what am I gonna do.....hmmm...I will look like a damn poodle (remember Monica when Friends went to Barbados??) Yep....thats me!

Total Hotness
No way I am getting braids and beads put in....eff that!
sigh.....whats a girl to do....

#2 Piss off
So I called to book with the girl Laura, that I have been going to for 2 years (since I moved here) and 1st told she changed salons! WTF....I just had an appointment with her 4 weeks ago...They said she left recently, so maybe she didn't know the last time I was in.....SO damn it! OK well I know there are a lot of good stylists there, so I took the only appointment they had left today.....and having no choice I took it.
I show up and um.....It's a BOY....I know that sounds ridiculous but I hate....I mean HATE boys doing my hair.....with their big man hands....yuck...and strange boy shampooing + the complimentary head massage = total creep out.....I just feel like Edward scissor hands is cutting my hair for some reason......

Now he did a good job....but no better then Laura. She was just a "regular stylist" but this guy 'Andre" as his card said....must be the gosh damn artistic director of the place cause that's the price I was charges....almost twice the price as usual! Jeez....I feel a bit rantish right about now....sorry

Got almost everything done...gonna buy some shorts tomorrow as I only have dresses packed......I also have to pick a dress up from the tailors (had to have it taken in!!)
I bought a new camera...It has a "share button" on it.....not sure what this means but apparently u can load pics directly to social medias...gonna play around with it tonight....
My mom and Kevin made it home safe and sound from Mexico! They had a great time! I was a bit worried with all the violence there these days....
And my pic of the day! My beautiful one month old goddaughter...getting cuter every day!!

Pretty Eva!!

Ahh!!

I Totally agree I feel weirded out by guys cutting my hair! But it happens occasionally. And I use http://www.moroccanoil.com/ to help combat the frizz. I use it everyday and since I found it I couldn't live with out it :)
