The List

I'm sure you've all heard about the list. The one people create listing everything they want to do before they die. I guess it's die unless people use other milestones like age. I never created one myself, but I've come up with an alternate plan. As I do things I've never done before I'm putting them on the list. That way I won't disappoint myself. And boy do I hate disappointing me. I can be very harsh. So last weekend I did a Spa weekend with my friend Lisa. No place to fancy. We went to Englewood Resort and Spa in Itasca. (No laughing.) We spent the day at the spa indulging ourselves in various services. I had a massage and a facial. We then headed to the pool, hot tub, sauna and steam. All in all a very nice way to spend a day.

We went back to the room, showered and got dressed for dinner (what turned out to be a mediocre dinner), but it's not easy finding a great restaurant in Itasca. This one had great reviews, but then again what do the people in Itasca know about great food. At the hotel we noticed while roaming the halls that there was a 60s party with a live band. We wanted to go in but everyone had name tags so we thought twice. We went out to the fire pit and met some people from Silver Cross group (the ones having the 60s themed party) and one of them gave me his badge so we could go check out the band. We got a drink and went in and sat down. There was one woman giving us a disapproving look. We got up and danced and even got another participant to dance with us. We knew she wanted to dance but felt a little awkward. We were just about to get up for another dance and a hotel person told us we had to leave. Well I've gotten kicked out of nicer parties. We then proceeded to crash a wedding down the hall and even ate a piece of wedding cake. This one we left on our own. So I have 2 items to add to my newly created list.
