DO YOU SEE THIS BULLSHIT??
This is a prime example of why I refuse to allow it to slide when somebody calls me a “masseuse”. “Masseuse” is a term associated with this so-called ‘sensual bodywork’, which is just a nice way to say that these girls will give you a handjob after they just rub your back, with their amateur skills. “Experience a plus but not necessary” !!!!!! Other than the sensual aspect, why should I let it slide when someone tries to associate me with this. That listing basically means that they will train you to do less-than-mediocre rub-downs(I can’t even call them massages), and proper handjobs, you don’t have to have ever gotten any sort of professional training. It truly bothers me when people want to say I’m a masseuse. I’m nice the 1st time, and I kindly explain why I am a massage therapist and not a masseuse. But when someone decides to continue to refer to me as a masseuse, I get angry. Why should I tolerate to be knocked down to this level, when I busted my ass to get the schooling and training to become a clinical massage therapist. I am a licensed clinical massage therapist, not a masseuse.
{{I’d like to note that women who take these masseuse jobs, good on them. I don’t judge what their choices are, and some women are happy to do that job. My anger stems from people wanting to put me on the same level. I trained in all sorts of techniques, studied the human anatomy and body systems extensively, studied and learned to treat may ailments, etc. I put in a ton of work, and would rather not have my title taken from me. I’m Stephanie LCMT, not Stephanie- Massuese. I worked HARD to get those 4 letters added to my name. Don’t take that away from me}}

I KICKED ASS!!!
I was so worried I’d fail and I actually did well. And finished in under 40 mins lol

So, now that I’m done with that, I can go read the books I have. I got the box set of John Green books. I’ve read Looking For Alaska and Paper Towns, but I want to re-read them. Which of the 4 should I start with?
I was thinking of starting with Katherine’s, but idk.

lmao

I showed Joel my business cards last night

And he goes “oohhh, nice. I’ll definitely pass some of these out for you, hopefully get you more clients”

BUT

He only took the one card I showed him that told him to keep for himself.

He didn’t take any to pass out!!!!

He’s got one, in his wallet.

How are you gonna help me get clients with only one of my cards in your wallet?

What a dork.

I’m currently too sore and cold(fucking flurries) to assemble it, but it will be set up by tonight.
