Boreh Scrubbed

So I thought I'd do something romantic and signed up to get a volcanic (Boreh) body scrub and massage with molly. I was envisioning side by side massages by a couple of cute Balinese women...

When we showed up, Molly got the cute girl in one hut. I went to the next hut, and got stuck with a Balinese guy. Hmmm... I reminded myself of how masculine newly married men are as I got a pretty damn good massage. Then came the volcanic scrub. Interesting smell that I couldn't quite place. After putting the scrub on my legs and my back, the guy left the hut, and I started to feel the burn. Holy Shit. It was hot. I think the volcanic name came from the feeling I had of being dipped in magma. I kept waiting. Was he burning off my skin to make me a better offering to Brahma, the God of Fire?? The bath tub looked really tempting.

After an eternity, the dude returned, and I was able to shower, and then soak away my wimpers in a rose petal infused bath. More reconfirmations of my masculinity....

After escaping the hut with all the skin on my back still intact, I found Molly and discovered the secret ingredient -- Nitric Acid. (see black thing next to statue)

Brent,

I can't tell you how hard I laughed reading this post. Hope the rose petals helped!

Have fun bro!
