I had three bodies today. This is the most I've had in one day in my shop since the shop opened. It doesn't quite match the six I did in a day when I was back in school, but it's a good start.

My first ‘victim’, was another client's personal trainer. She had some special needs which I addressed, and spent some extra time doing so. When she left, she was feeling pretty good.

After talking to the client that sent her, I was told that she did enjoy the massage. And while talking to the client that sent her, that person decided “oh, a massage would be great". So, I worked on her as my last session for the day.

The surprise session was a walk-in. This gentleman was driving down the road and saw the sign out front, which is surprising in itself as my small sign that I put up by the road got taken last week. He actually saw the sign in with the other businesses on the large sign, and that one is very hard to read. When I told him I was surprised that he saw that, he told me he was driving real slow.

This was actually my first Super Bowl client. He was an employee of the NFL and was in town for the game. He was looking for a massage and was trying to find someplace legitimate. (I guess where he lives in New Jersey, and works in New York, it might be hard to find a legitimate therapist.) He pulled up, thinking the place look legitimate, and came in the front door. He told me once he saw me, that he was sure it was legitimate and asked for a massage.

I managed to work out all his problems and get him feeling better again. He told me he loved the massage as it was a really good one. I asked how he could tell this as he was sleeping most of the time, but he swore it was a really good massage. Cool.

I'm hoping for more bodies this week as I am listed high in the alphabet, and there will be a lot of people coming into town. I'm crossing my fingers in hopes that it will happen. Hmmm, does crossing one's fingers manifest things?
