Today, I treated myself to a little pampering by doing what what my mother likes to refer to as “the tune up.”

The “tune up” is a bizarre regimen that we women engage in to look presentable to others.  Every woman’s regimen is different but it frequently includes some (if not all) of the following:  waxing, tweezing, depilatory creams, facial masks, leave-in hair treatments, teeth whitening strips and nail polish.  Luckily, it has not been too long since my last tune up so today’s task was not too arduous.

The colors I chose for the mani-pedi I gave myself, however, are a bit out of character for me.  Oh well, its only in keeping with the theme of this weekend’s double races: CRAZINESS!
