My alarming facial

A dimly lit room, relaxing music, a heated temperpedic bed, a therapeutic facial...ahhh, nothing can ruin this moment.

ATTENTION (bright,whit light flashing) AN EMERGENCY HAS BEEN DECLARED FOR THIS BUILDING. PLEASE EXIT IMMEDIATELY. DO NOT USE THE ELEVATORS.

This is what I heard/saw 3/4 of the way through what was supposed to be my relaxing 80 min facial. She tried to just keep working, but told me "it" has never gone on this long before (umm, before?). She checks the other rooms them comes back to tell me
" Everyone has left. Here is your robe follow me down the stairwell. Don't worry, there will be other people in their robes too." (oh, that makes me feel better. Thanks)
Luckily, after just one flight of stairs the alarm goes off and it was safe to go back. Only a false alarm. I have safely managed to avoid a ton of people seeing me in this state. Instead only 4 have managed to be scarred.
Thanks Ritz Carlton for the heart rate check during my spa visit and for helping overcome my fear of having people see me in nothing but my robe and a comatose face.
