\"pedicure\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Have the  feelings. Know that they are there. Realize that feelings are fleeting things. Be okay with that.<\/p>\n

Decide that you are going to do something for yourself that involves neither salt, sugar, nor fat.<\/p>\n

One option is to have your first ever pedicure done by someone other than yourself or your relatives.<\/p>\n

Be overwhelmed by the options.<\/p>\n

Try to relax though you’re not exactly sure what the steps nor the etiquette are.<\/p>\n

Make use of the options in the massage chair.<\/p>\n

Spend some time imagining the life of the man getting his own pedicure.<\/p>\n

Spend weird amounts of time looking at your feet for the rest of the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
