I owe this old friend an essay as well.
It was a chilly night, I grossly needed some form of relaxation so I called up my old friend Laura. This is the first time I had seen her at the new location, thank god it is much easier to find than her old place with an abundance amount of parking. It is in South Edmonton, overlooking the Henday and easy access to Whitemud and literally walkable (a long walk but doable) from Century LRT.
This new location definitely fixed a lot of things about the old one. The street was empty, pretty much, pick a spot, any spot and park. The entrance to the building is a short 10m walk from the street, lovely. The creepy looking janitor guy with a safety vest did give me a strange look as I walked in but it was all good.
My old friend was waiting for in in her patented short summer dress and heels. Oh my, I loved that look. No, she is not this sexy 20 something Playboy bunny lookalike but there is something equally sexy about this Latina cougar.
The massage room is large, large enough for a full size table and a comfortable sofa bed; both would be important for a suitably longer appointment with Laura,
.
Like any old friend would do, the dress came off as soon as the massage started; showing off her well shaved body. For the first ½ hour, we chatted a lot, she complained about the knots in my shoulders, we laughed a little; then the teasing started. As Laura instructed, “don’t be shy”, she grabbed my hand and placed is somewhere warm and soft. After a few more minutes, I initiated the flip, I had to, it was increasingly uncomfortable for me to continue with the face down position, my anatomy wouldn’t allow it.
Laura reached for two things latex from the shelves, I knew what one of them was but wondered about the second one. The second one was a glove and she showed me that she is learning how to use a latex glove in her massages. Although it wasn’t the best I have ever experienced, it was good, much better than my first doctor’s visit after I turned 40. Then the mandatory second latex uniform was used and we were off to the main events.
Overall, it was a great experience. Among the pseudo-RMTs, there is no better value than Laura; I loved her fixed fee approach to things, similar to micros, no guessing. Among the non-Asians, there is no better person than Laura. I like the new location and amenities within the suite; hehe, I loved that second bed in the room. Overall, she reminded me why I liked her, her personality is simply so pleasant, I always liked a little bit of sunshine in my day. My only complaint? There is always one with me, I think short nails with latex glove would make the experience more enjoyable.
Laura and I joked that we should take a night off and eat/dance/whatever the night away; I think it would be a very enjoyable evening.
Finally, the usual caveat. If you go see Laura expecting a 20 something fitness model, you will be disappointed. As far as I know, Laura cannot issue receipts yet so your insurance company will be disappointed. If you go see Laura to experience a genuine mature caring masseuse in a comfortable surrounding, you will not find better value in town. As usual, YMMV.
