brave new world

Well, maybe just a brave new me. Wednesday morning I was supposed to get a free haircut at Equinox's salon with the head guy - they've got some "hair model" promotion & when he saw my hair he wanted to cut it himself, though normally he wouldn't. I booked this 2 weeks ago. I called Tuesday night just to make sure, since they didn't confirm with me, & the phone girl says not only do I not have an appointment, it wouldn't have been with the head guy anyway, it would have been with an assistant. Which is not what we discussed, so I decide to confront them the next day. Turns out I actually was incorrectly scheduled with the assistant, which last night's dumbass somehow didn't see, & the desk girl insists on rescheduling me with the assistant for next Wednesday. I don't have the energy to keep arguing with her so I go swimming. After 50 laps being mad about it, I decide I need to stop being a wuss & go get what I was promised. This time it's a very nice guy at the desk & he totally takes care of everything. So I'm still getting my free haircut with the head guy AND I can be proud that I stood up for myself. Ahhh, the benefits of being a dominatrix...
