A look into the crazy, sometimes bewildering life on the road as a traveling artist...along with some chatty bits about making two-family home work for EVERYBODY.

Pretty City Beauty Sale, Orlando FL aka You Know You Are Getting Old When... 2/7/2008
So, Wednesday night we had an event in Downtown Orlando for PrettyCity.com and sponsored by Shape Magazine. I was there representing local artists in the beauty industry and I hoped to make lots of contacts and hand out a bunch of soap samples. There were free drinks and sweets and about 500 women sampling products, getting makeovers and haircuts at about a dozen different booths representing national makeup companies and local spas.
The only problem was that it was impossible to hear anything because the music was so loud. Think dance club at midnight LOUD. Now, this wasn't a dance club, and although it was a party atmosphere--we were there to sell our products. I don't know if the customers heard maybe every fifth word I said, and I know I didn't hear them very well.
By the end of the night, I was ready to put my earplugs in and close up shop, but, luckily we were only opened for four hours and the time went pretty quick. I handed out a ton of samples...so we will see what happens from this event.
The best part of the night was watching the gals who had been there four hours drinking strong Cointreau drinks all night. Their dancing was very....imaginative...to say the least. LOL
