yay for being a journalist

This weekend I had to head out to SIR Spa to interview the manager for my Trade magazine Company Profile story. I had never been to Andersonville before and I thought it was just adorable.

The manager and client of SIR Spa that I interviewed were the most aesthtically perfect men I think I have ever seen. After showing me around the spa, they gave me a glass of chilled white wine and gave me a free manicure. They didn’t have any nail polish because it is a spa targeted towards men, but they still really cleaned up my nails and gave me a nice massage.

They turned the Cubs game off because it was so “bor-ing” and put on Real Housewives of New York City to bitch about. I loved it! This would never ever happen if I was at a women’s spa.

Both of the men I spoke with had backgrounds in marketing and they were the most helpful interviewees. They answered all of my questions, reccomended websites to go to, articles I should read, and put me in contact with other people at the spa.

It is nice to learn two weeks before graduating that not all people are hard to get in touch with. Some people are actually willing to help me out, even if I am just a college kid writing a paper for class.
