I just flew in from Millersville...and boy are my arms tired!

Last night my buddy, Linda and I participated in a Spa Night at Millersville University.
Basically what it was, was the Women's empowerment group sponsored a free spa night for the students in the student center.
They had refreshments, a make your own facial mask station where you could make a face mask to take home with a banana, honey, and a few other ingredients, a manicure station where they had nail polish and other cool stuff set up, a massage therapist there giving chair massages, *another direct sales cosmetic company* doing makeup, and (in my opinion the best part) two fabulous consultants from the Body Shop at home doing hand massages.
I had a really great time. I met so many awesome young women (and a couple of young men). Besides the hand massages, we also had some products for sale, and we held a free drawing for a very cute gift set.
Unfortunately, we didn't get any sales last night, and I have a very sore back and shoulders from rubbing over 100 hands. But, I did get some great leads from the drawing slips, and I met a very lovely senior from NJ who is interested in becoming a consultant.
I had a lot of fun, and I would definilty do this again. I will file this experience under my "seeds" file. I did not get immediate benefit like you do by going to the produce stand, but I will get some delayed benefit like you do by planting a seed. I like planting seeds, they always bloom when you least expect it.

I also want to publicly thank Kristin for giving me this lead, Blaire Spooner for contacting The Body Shop at Home about participating and Linda Eckman for coming with me and being my partner in crime.
