jeffer

this morning i got an hour-long massage at this chinese medicine practice on huafeng lu that was so mind-numbingly painful that i could feel my eyes rolling into the back of my head. it was like experiencing an exorcism. in a good way. i've had a chinese hairdresser tell me my hair is unusually dry and knotted, a chinese makeup artist asked me why i have such sparse eyebrows, do i overpluck them? no they are just that way, and this chinese masseuse told me that some muscle in my back is misshapen. and he dug into my acupressure points until i thought his hands would delve through dermis and separate muscles strand by strand and come out grasping on the other side.

tonight i had wine and cheese during sunset at cloud 9 on the 87th floor of the jin mao tower. nice view.

I don't, I don't! It's just that the ways in which you describe them, I cannot help but smile loudly.
