a new era in smewth

As the last stage in beautification for my trip with the Tickler, I got sugared at long last by a lady whom sirriamnis recommended to me. I must say, sugaring lives up to the hype. It's a little more comfortable, definitely less messy, and the results are at least as good. I've made an appointment to see Ms. Sugar again in six weeks.

Oh: Ms. Sugar has a new baby. I could hear but not see the little guy*. I'll have to remember not to schedule anything too soon after sugaring appointments for a while because mother and child are going to need breaks at unpredictable times. It's a longer bus trip, but between the better service and the knowledge that I'm not supporting Wax On Fremont's crummy labor practices make that worth it.

It occurs to me that Espresso To Go, my fave coffee joint in Fremont not least because it bakes its own pastries in a tiny space, would make an excellent weekend or holiday bike destination.



*At least, she thinks he's a guy. That's fine as long as she Just Deals With It Properly if she finds out otherwise.
