Waiting

I’m not a patient person but I totally don’t mind waiting when I have good stuff to read. You’d think that I would always be prepared but every once in a while I’ve been caught off guard. However, this weekend I was ready to wait and enjoy my waiting time.Saturday I went to get my haircut. My hairdresser is awesome but she’s always running late so this time I was armed with a new mystery, Deception by Denise Mina, which I had heard good reviews about. As I was walking across the parking lot to the salon, there was my hairdresser sitting outside and waiting. She was waiting for me. So much for my book.

After that it was off to get a facial (yes, this was an all frou-frou girl kind of weekend). At the spa they had delicious fragrances wafting through from the aromatherapy candles and soft music playing. And, the best stash of fashion magazines outside of a bookstore. They had the latest issues of Allure, Marie Claire, Elle and well, I couldn’t really see all the titles as I barely had time to sit down before I was whisked away for an hour of relaxation.

So I didn’t really get to wait and read. But next weekend I have some other appointments to keep so let’s see how those go.
