Zapper..

Yesterday I had my 4th and final zapping appointment. Well at least for now. If I notice hair growth in the next 6 to 8 weeks I am supposed to go back for a touch up zap. I'm scared though because yesterdays treatment HURT. The ...what would you call her....the hair wizard...used a new machine on me yesterday. This new machine is basically an upgrade from the old machine and allows the hair wizard to adjust the intensity of the zap for each patient. She told me at the start of my appointment that she was going to do "two passes" which translates in to two zaps per spot. The first zapping round would be more "intense because it will go deeper in to the follicle" and then second would be less intense. My body was jerking on the table like I was having a seizure. I was TRYING not to whimper but she'd catch my Lilly in a spot that felt like she was sending shock waves through my body and I'd have to scream a little. It was such a quick deep pain that it made my heart race and my adrenaline flow. I'm scared to go back again.

Last night Eric's family sat around and watched a scary movie. I'm not much for scary movies. I usually have to be forced in to them or guilted. They give me bad dreams and I sweat through every minute of them. I just see no point in putting myself through that kind of torture.

Last time Eric and I rented a movie at Blockbuster I got to pick the movie so I went with that Bernie Mac and Ashton Kutcher movie. It was cute but Eric wasn't really in to it and fell asleep. This time it was Eric's turn to pick and so he picks the movie that his sister just got done describing to us as the scariest movie she's ever seen in the theater. Lovely. Out of the kindness of my heart I agreed to gather round and watch the movie with the family. I got about 30 minutes in to the flick when out popped this scary person and I jumped, screamed really loud, and covered my face in the blanket. Eric's Mom was laughing at me and so at that point I decided since I was the only one scared in the room it might be best for me to retire and go read, "The Secret Life of Bees" in my room. No point in being the ONLY one screaming in the dark - right?

I did have bad dreams but I can't remember what they are now. I got up at about 2:30am to pee and try and clear my mind and it must have worked b/c now I can't recall what they were about. I want to say it was about me going to jail or something.....

I hate scary movies!

What was the scarry movie? The zapping sounds similar to my Tattoo. Very painful and there was a lot of yelping, OOOOOOWWWW-ing and lots of adrenaline. Luckily I can't remember any of it now, so I think its like having a baby, you quickly forget. I think you will enjoy the results. I am thinking about doing that now too.
