A Day of Christine


I had a day of Christine the other day. A day of relaxing, a massage, pizza, getting my hair done and an afternoon glass of wine. Oh how I love these days and have not had one in over 3 months. It was great, until I started thinking about the economics of it all.

A massage is shockingly cheap here, whereas books are extremely expensive. For one massage here, I could buy two books. Whereas in NYC, one massage could buy me twelve books. A massage in Manhattan can put ten kids in school for a year. Sometimes I can get so wrapped around these numbers I just want another glass of wine. "Waiter!…"

…..there goes another year of school fees for this kid.
