Girls' night

So last Thursday we had the ladies over to our place. Thursday was the day for Ryan and Caroline's "apart" night (some couples have date nights; Ryan and Caroline have "apart" nights, lol!), so Caroline, Amy B., Amy G., Cheryl, Arlene, Alicia, Chastity, Maggie, Alicia, Chastity, and myself hung out at our place, eating dessert and chocolate and just chatting. (Nate and Ryan went to a restuarant downtown to watch a game on their big flat-screen TVs there.) Cheryl brought to our house a detoxification-thing that someone had donated to SI. I'm not entirely sure how it works, but there's this box-thing with a cord attached to it that has a metal coil on the end. You put your feet in some warm water in a bucket with a certain amount of sea salt and drop in the metal coil. The box thingamajigger somehow draws metal and toxins in your body out through your feet. It takes about 25 minutes and is perfectly painless, though your feet may tingle a little bit like when they are just starting to fall asleep. The whole thing was rather amazing; you start with a bucket of clean, warm water and 25 minutes later the water looks brownish and has all kinds of little floaties in it that came out THROUGH YOUR FEET! Kind of gross, but I posted the video above of what my water looked like when I was done.

Here's a picture of Caroline checking out her own floaties! :-)
