We decided to keep going with rehab, and he wants to lay off the neck injections for a while, though I think they've been helping in conjunction with the physical therapy. He did mention the procedure that burns nerve endings, though he doesn't do it, but he said that it is an option if we can say without a doubt that the SI injections are helping... as steroids are not a permanent solution.
I scheduled an appointment for five weeks from now and then left for my laser hair removal session. I had a lot of time before I needed to be there, so I found a Starbucks and made a call to Tricare to see how many rehab sessions I have left. After I got my latte, I went to Alite and they took me in after a couple minutes, despite the fact that I was 20 minutes early.
I chatted with the technician, Dallas, and she zapped me and we were done in a matter of 10 minutes from start to finish. I went out to reception and they said that they're doing a special where everything is 50% off, so that bikini, which is usually $160, was $80, and the underarms, which is usually $100, was $50. Thus, my total was $130. I had ten $50 gift certificates, so I pulled out two and planned on dropping $30. However, she said I could only use ONE. I told her that I'd always used more than one at the other location, but she assured me she would only accept one.
I had to pay $80, plus a tip. Due to my having to drop $80, my tip was only $15 because I didn't have $80, much less $95, to be spending on laser hair removal. I know, it seems logical to not go, however I got all the gift certificates when I had a job and money and I didn't want to waste them. Though, if I can't use more than one at a time in RR, then I'll just eat the money I originally spent, since it'd be cheaper to do that than to spend MORE money trying to get rid of them.
Ugh.
The rest of the afternoon was spent playing with Eis and watching some of Justin Beiber's documentary movie from awhile back... it was on Netflix and I was bored. Though, he is a talented young man. It was strange to see how crazy all those girls go over him. I can't imagine what that's like. I don't think I'd ever want to know what that's like, since I think it'd be a bit scary. He seems like a good kid and I hope he doesn't turn into a Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, or Christina Aguilera -- crazy, druggy, slutty, or just a horrible role-model. I hope he can keep a good head on his shoulders and surround himself with the right kinds of people. Selena Gomez is adorable, too, and I like them as a couple.
We went to Berryhill for dinner for $2 tacos and it was yummy. I fed Eis carrots (homemade) while we ate dinner and she made crazy faces, but she ate them all. She's funny because she'll make faces like what she's eating is disgusting, but she keeps opening her mouth and wanting more, so I guess they're just faces and don't necessarily portray what she's thinking about the food.
The picture of the day was when she was in her jumperoo and her eye caught the frog bouncing around above her. She stopped bouncing, leaned back, and stared at it for a minute or two. It was cute.
