No pain, no gain

In light of my quest for self-beautification, brought on by the impending wedding (which is actually still at least 10 months away), I decided to try out IPL. It hurt a lot more than I thought it would! Maybe I'm just a wuss but I haven't felt that sort of sensation before. It was short bursts of *very* hot light, and it felt like lots of needles pricking my skin. It brought on a bit of a sweat - whether it was from the heat or from the anticipation of the next "shot" I'm not sure. If you ever get IPL, ask for an ice pack to numb the skin - I really needed one!
Right now I am still at work. Not working, just waiting for Leon to get into the city from Upper Hutt so we can catch up. Leon is down from Auckland *again* for work. His work has asked him to relocate and he's thinking about it. Saves them money I guess, seeing how many times he has had to come down so far. Might go the Feathers for dinner. Right now I'm keen for pub food. It must be the weather - winter has arrived. But at least I'll get to spend a week of it in the Gold Coast this year :)
