Mystic Tan and Wedding Bells

It's almost time for Cam and Daron to tie the knot! Just a couple of days left. Since the big day was coming fast, I thought I would try out Mystic Tan because the dresses are strapless and I was white as a sheet. I went for my first visit last week and boy was that fun. The video was super boring but I was the guinea pig first because Cam had an appointment later that night. So I wanted to relay any important info.

I put the stupid booties on -- big mistake, they left a mark! 14 seconds seemed like a year and I started gulping air like a fish out of water. I just want to say that Mystic Tan tastes bad -- very, very bad. Once the initial spray stopped I turned around so afraid I wouldn't be ready for the machine to do my back. So very afraid that I opened my eyes to get my balance (yeah I know that makes a lot of sense) and then forgot to close them. All I could think of was that my thighs were touching and there was going to be a white spot because of it. Then all I could think about was that my eyes were going to be a mess from keeping them open. I shut them about 3 seconds before the spray stopped. Smart me keeps them closed and I tried frantically to get out of the friggin'' booth. I couldn't remember if the door swung out or in. It was the first time I actually felt a little claustrophobic. I've decided that I don't like feeling trapped -- at all.

I was slightly orangish brown until I took a shower later that night and the next day I was pretty pleased with the result. It only lasted about 4 days and then it faded completely. I went back tonight and didn't wear booties, kept my eyes shut the entire time and only gulped air a few times. All in all it was a successful venture. I'll probably go back and do that right before the cruise next year. It's not something I'll indulge in beyond that. I like being tan, but I like being outside better. Plus the sun is free, Mystic Tan sure ain't. If you've been thinking of trying it, I say go for it! My place had a deal: Buy a session for $25 and get the second free. It was pretty good.

Well, I'll be MIA until Sunday. Go visit Laci, my renter, she'll keep you company!
