Celebrating With a Fish Foot Food Feast

I'm through another rewrite of my novel script. That's what I came to Athens to do, and now it's done. I have at least one more rewrite, so the script is not done yet. But major changes were made this time, and I believe to the better. The next will smooth out things even more .. one more may even finish it .. or the one after that might .. For now, I'm happy to have come this far. The script is definitely different from when I came to Athens a few weeks ago, and I feel good about its progress.

I thought I'd celebrate, so I went today and stuck my feet in a fish tank to have them nibble on my feet. The place is called a fish spa. The fish are about an inch long. You put the feet into a tank with about a hundred fish, and they tickle and caress you by sucking and licking your feet. It softens the feet and rids you of hard skin. I asked, is this actually the fish food they get, like do they only get foot food here? No, they told me, they also get food. This, for them, is just a foot snack. Not to confuse with a food snack, I suppose. At a point, I stuck my hand down there. Never have I as literally felt, that I handed someone a hand snack. It tickled in a very pleasant way. I figure they were having as much of a party as was I.

Tomorrow I'm flying back to Copenhagen for a long family weekend, lasting till Tuesday. I simply can't wait to see them and hug them and give them all the cheap crap presents I've bought for them down here. With good stuff in between. Oh, the love. Never forget to give it away.
