After pilates this morning (my last class before Ramadan begins :( ) I came home and rested a bit. Called Soma Fit Spa to schedule an 80 minute massage at 3:00PM. for Saurabh and me. On Mondays and Tuesdays they have a 'happy hour' special, which is a 50 minute massage for $74 and an 80 minute massage for $108.
We headed out at 12:30 to go to Furin's in Georgetown for lunch. We had a livingsocial coupon that was expiring soon. It turned out to be quite an interesting place. We got the 3 salad sampler (tabouleh, pasta-pesto salad and Thai chicken salad) and the Chicken Pastilla with Greek salad. The pastilla wasn't a hit with us. I don't think we appreciate the sweet/salty flavour combination. The salads were all delicious, as was their fresh lemonade.
Me in Furin's with all the food we got!
After lunch and some errands (new battery for my nook and posting mail) we headed to Soma Fit. It is QUITE a fancy place. Once we signed in at the front desk, we were given a pair of slipper, a robe and locker keys. The locker room was again, fancy! It included a steam and a sauna. I don't particularly care for either, so I didn't take advantage of it. Saurabh tried them out since he hadn't ever before. I will let him tell his story. heeheehee. After changing into the robe, we headed up one level up and waited for our masseuses. While we waited, there was water flavoured with an orange cut in half and cookies (Danish butter cookies - I have been craving those for a while, and cheese twirl biscuits). I wasn't too hungry or thirsty then, but I took advantage of this after my massage. Jay was my masseuse. The massage was excellent, though it definitely felt like he kneaded to pulp some parts of my body, especially my shoulders and upper back (OWWWW!!!!)
That's where all my knots were!
After, we came home for a bit before he headed out to AMC Mazza Gallery for the prescreening of Expendables. It is an absolute action movie; funny too, when they are actually talking and not either threatening people, cutting people up or blowing people up. I can't say I was bored or anything. I see it doing quite well in the box office.

Damn, I wanna get a massage - I have been wanting one for the last 6 months!!! And, exactly where you needed yours. Also, I was wondering about whether or not you were still doing your classes now that Ramadan started, so glad you had it on here cuz I keep forgetting to ask you :)
