Friends

   So I know I am not the first to comment on the fact that many random things that occur in life can be traced back to a Friends episode. However, maybe I should stop telling people that, they do not always seem to appreciate it, or get it.
   My Friends moment happened a few weeks ago when I decided to get a spray tan for my little sister's wedding. Honestly, the whole skin cancer thing aside, I don't have time to fake and bake. And what the heck am I supposed to do with my kids for 8-11 minutes four times a week while I tan? On a side note, tanning salons should really have child care, I mean, they are losing the mothers of young children cliental. Anyway, so the girl or spray tan technician is explaining to me while demonstrating the 4 poses that I will be doing while being sprayed with who knows what the tanning solution. The whole time I am thinking A) I wonder if SHE spray tans, because she looks awful and B) holy crap what if I don't get the poses right, don't turn in time, and look like Ross in that one Friends episode?? I told her about the Friends episode, which maybe, in hindsight, was not a good idea. She didn't seem to think it was all that funny and assured me I would not look like Ross.
   All ended well. I am a major fan of the spray on tan. I'm actually going again today. I mean, tomorrow is my 27th birthday, I should look tan for the big day.
