All the Love that Tums Built

I broke the rental car this morning. Not on purpose, mind you. It was just that the Cruze couldn't accelerate at the rate I needed it to. And, when I finally allowed it to rev back down the check engine light came on. I'm all for great gas mileage, but it has to be able to toss itself out the window and speed up when needed. Big props to Enterprise. They took the car back without complaint or question and gave me the pick of what I wanted. I looked at the Cadillac, but went with a Charger. I know the Charger since I drive one on a regular basis. Actually I picked the keys for the Avenger, but the guy behind the counter laughed at me. He asked me what car I wanted and gave it to me. Enterprise really does have the best customer service I've come across.
I'm still stuck in the handicapped room at the hotel, but it's only for two weeks. In fact, I can't come back to this hotel because the room rate is higher than approved. That is a new stipulation so I will obey and I choose another hotel up the road. I hope they have a weight room. I really do want to keep up with my exercising.  Or the pretense of it. I walked 40 minutes this morning. And then! Woo! I used the weights. I know I keep saying this, but I need to get set up at a real gym when I get back to Dallas. Something with a trainer who can keep me in line so I get my ass up at 5 am to drive down there and work out. I sent a text to a friend this morning asking where the cute lesbians were to help me get my shit together. She said they were all waiting for me to get my shit together. Tsk. No man or woman to be had. What's the fun of self improvement if there is no one to comment on it?
And, of course, I went out and dropped a ton of money on make up and hair conditioner. The problem is the conditioner is the bomb. It makes my hair feel so silky. The other is a primer for my makeup so my eye makeup will stay. Otherwise it's just this dark smudge. Of course, now I feel like I'm just shellacking the makeup on, but darn it, I want to look professionalish.
Long drive tomorrow. Back to Illinois to see some stores, stay a night out there, and then come back on Wednesday. I don't even think I'm going to have time to have an office day this week. Thursday and Friday I'm spending some serious time out up north. One has inventory and the other is just a hot mess. And then off to Louisville to get my hair done. It's been over a year since I've seen my regular stylist. The one who created the look. She will wax my neck, and finally fix the mess that is the back of my head. I'll catch a movie with Nic and then off to St. Lou cause my sister is getting induced this week. I may get to meet my new nephew. I shall call him Fred. No one else will, but until my sis beats me for using the wrong name, I'll get to call him whatever I want.
