1. guess who called me today... CAROLE MAGGIO, inventor of FACERCISE!!!! I emailed her a question about my eyelid, and she emailed me back asking me for my number. When she called I didn't pick up b/c I didn't recognize the number but she left a really nice message! She said she wanted to respond to my email personally b/c my email was so "cute". (OD, I told her that I have a 34 year old friend who now looks better than she did at 21 b/c of facercise.... that's you!!!) She totally answered my question in great detail. Awesome! It was like getting a phone call from... madonna, or oprah or MWD or something!
2. Then, my cello teacher asked me to check out this cello she is not sure if she will keep or sell. I played on it... it was AMAZING. She asked me what I thought it was worth, I said, I dunno, a ton of money? It turns out it costs less than the cello I already have, but it sounds and feels INSANELY AMAZING... so if she decides to sell it I told her I want it. I couldn't put it down, I couldn't stop playing, I just felt so powerful, and free. Wow!! I had no idea I could maybe get a grownup cello so soon!! One of her proteges has one and uses it instead of his insanely expensive many-centuries-old-cello b/c he likes it better, and I can see why!!
