Happy Monday Ragers and Ragettes!! I hope that you all had a fab weekend!
As you know, on Friday (as it was payday) Simon gave me a
half day and I went to the beauty salon to get prinnied up! And prinnied up I got!
Simon drove me and I got in, announced my presence and
waited for my first treatment. The girls
in the salon looked at me curiously.
My name was called and I went to a pretty black haired woman
who introduced herself to me. She was
going to get me nails back to their fabulous best! Now, I thought as I am dating and successful business
man and I am working for a successful business I better tame my nails. Instead
of my Betty Rage scarlet talons, I opted for short French manicure. The beauty therapist and I chatted freely and
she asked about me and my background. It
was nice, I felt human again.
Time was ticking on.
As I had an old set of acrylics on, she had to soak them off so my next
appointment was coming up. Bikini and
eyebrow waxing.
A larger lady came out and asked my nail technician if I was
ready. She looked at me and told me that
she was going to do my bikini and eyebrows.
Now, I usually went to the Brazilian Waxing Company in
Manchester for my waxing needs. They are
fab! Quick, professional, lovely and
well priced. They use wax to do the
waxing and they thread my brows.
Today, Betty Rage’s bikini line was going to get Sugared
off. Yes, sugared! I have never heard of it either!! Well it was interesting. Still painful but it worked. The more interesting thing was that I was a
curiosity. The woman who was sugaring my
bikini line was saying that they were wondering about me. They basically know most people in the
town. And because they didn’t know me
they were curious. I told them that I
was dating Simon and I was “ok”. They
wax, manicure, pedicure and pamper Simon’s mum.
It was really weird. I am
different, I know but it was like a stereotypical situation that would see in a
small town. That kind of left a bad
taste in my mouth.
When she finished my bikini line and my eyebrows, I went
back to the front and my nail technician continued with my nails. My next appointment was with a beautiful girl
with big eyes. She was going to do my eyelashes, as in give me eyelash
extensions. She was very sweet but
again, I got the impression that I was being sussed out. She finished with my eyelashes and I went
back to get my nails finished.
As my nail varnish was drying, I texted Simon to let him
know that I was ready.
He came and picked me up and told me that I looked
beautiful. Sigh. He’s great...
On Saturday, I woke up to a drunken message from Jan. (Remember him?) I don’t know how I felt.
I mean. Jan...with
his blue eyes, his chiselled cheekbones, that accent...damn...He is perfection
to the highest degree. He’s like an Adonis. It’s scary.
I took a breath and sent a reply asking how he was and what
he was up to. I drove to the gym and
started working out. And just as Mazzy
Star’s “Fade into You” came on my iPod, I got another text from Jan...Miss,
please be my financial dominatrix. My heart went in my throat. I closed my eyes and I did the one thing that
made the most sense to me. I sent a
message to Suzanne.
She came back saying that I was insane to entertain that
thought!! She was right. I sent him a text saying that I am with
someone now and that I am happy and if he wants a friend I am here. I haven’t heard anything since.
When I got home, I cleaned myself and Simon and I headed to
Manchester on the train to speak to my landlady. She was coming up from London and we were
going to speak about the flat and such.
We got in nice and early and had a lovely stroll around the
town. It was beautiful and sunny
out.
We finally met up with my old
landlady, and I showed her Rage Towers.
She was taken aback at how much I cleaned, I bought new furniture and I
made it look lovely. She waived my final
month’s rent. I was touched. We took her out for a drink and she insisted
on buying both rounds. We sat in the
sunshine in Spinningfields and just enjoyed it.
She left to get her train and Simon and I went to Gourmet
Burger Kitchen for a lovely meal. We had
an absolute lovely day.
Then on Sunday I bounced out of bed. We did our food shopping and then rushed to
Simon’s parents. I was so excited and so
happy because I was going to see Suzanne!!!
When we got back from Simon’s parent’s house (later than I
wanted!!) I rushed, got showered and put on a lovely vintage navy and white
polka dotted dress and accessorised with my red peep toed shoes, a red flower
in my hair, my red lippy and red rings and earrings.
We drove to Suzanne’s with the top down and I enjoyed every
minute! When I saw Suzanne I flung my
arms around her and held her close to me.
I felt tears well up in my eyes.
It just felt great to be with my bezzie again.
We got in and I dumped Simon with Rick and chatted to
Suzanne hugging her and telling her that I missed her so much.
She looked really lovely too. She was rocking a cute blue sleeveless
blouse, black trousers and her trademark beaming smile. I felt so happy and so much better about life
because she was there. I missed her more
than I think that I will admit. Her
laugh, her smile....She’s a very precious and special woman to me.
She and I did the Project 52 first photography shot. I looked at the photos and I defo need to get
back to the gym!!!! So I am upping my
game (I am considering going tonight after work) and keeping my head down and
going for it! By week 52 I want to look
foxy as fuck!! And with Suzanne I will!!
It’s been a good weekend very true. And Monday?
Yeah, it’s been ok. I am bit
cranky and I am a bit teary today (I don’t know why) and so I have been
quiet. Simon is going to get a back rub
from me tonight.
So there you go, Ragers and Ragettes. Things are settling down nicely and I am
feeling happier about life in general.
You get good days and you get bad days but when you are surrounded by
good people, that’s all that matters!
So until the next time, stay fabulous!
Lots of Love
The Fabulous Betty Rage xxxxxxxxxxx
