Good story Monalisa. I found it after getting my first one in this publication.
Your husband sounds harsh but I, too, pay $1 per minute at a cheap dark Asian joint in a strip mall to be touched by the loveliest masseuse imaginable.
It is hard for me not to fall in love with her and it is the usually the best hour of my month. These days, I often go twice (the day after payday) per month and look forward to the next one even before I leave.
