Okay, I know that it's really bad to go to a psychic... but we had one here at XS all day long. I don't believe in any of that kind of stuff (Tarot Cards, etc.), so I thought it would be interesting to see what she would say. It was actually pretty accurate... which was a little disconcerting. The lady was a complete nut job with sparkly clothes and everything. After picking a few cards from random decks, she started talking nonstop. At that point, the Salon Coordinator interrupted us to tell the psychic that her next client was here. I had only been with her for less than 2 minutes... and I really wanted to know what she was going to say! Everyone else I work with had seen her and told me all about what she told them. One girl even told me the psychic told her that she would meet a man within 30 to 60 days that would "knock her socks off"! I wanted to hear that kind of thing too, dang it. So, I decided to wait until she was finished with all of her clients to sneak in there and try to get her to finish what she started with me. I waited for a while, and decided to let the massage therapist go ahead instead of me (by this time it was 4:30, and the psychic takes 30 minutes for a reading... and she was leaving at 5). I was pretty proud of myself. The psychic told the massage therapist that she would have a great job opportunity in 2 to 3 weeks... we'll see how that pans out! I guess I'll never know what's in the cards for me...
Meanwhile, one of the psychics had a girl come along with her. She was applying makeup to herself from our makeup display, and my job was to get her to stop! I asked her if I could do her makeup, and she nodded and gave me a dreamy smile with vacant eyes. She was definitely a free spirit. She would barely talk, she just pointed and did her own sign language (like pretending she was putting mascara on, and lipstick). I would tell her to close her eyes, and she would lean her head back like she was falling asleep, or like she was being hypnotized. When I was applying her eye shadow, she wouldn't close her eyes... but she did cross them! WEIRD! She was even breathing heavily! When I was done, I said she looked like she was ready for a hot date. She said, "What's that?" I explained to her that she looked pretty enough to go out with a boy to the movies or something! Then she said, "Can I have a hug?" So I hugged her, and she held me for a while with her head on my shoulder. It was definitely strange, to say the least!

Carrie, you didn't tell me about this experience. Thankgoodness for this blog or I wouldn't hear a lot of things! That is hillarious about the girl you put makeup on! Let's hope you don't see her in there again, or she might request you!
I wonder what she would have said. Not that I think we should all listen to people like that but it is interesting to hear what they say. I sometimes use to watch Montel before Abbey took over the TV. On Wednesdays he had Silvia, a "all seeing eye," talk and answer audiences questions. It was pretty interesting but she had some pretty whacked out things she would say about big foot, fairies, elves, unicorns and such.
