A public service announcement brought to you by the Queen is the brilliant advice for my dear readers to never, EVER drive without a current Texas Driver's License. Should you have a suspended license, shame on you, and odds are you will be arrested and receive a misdemeanor charge along with an all-expense paid trip to jail if you are caught driving. There are fees associated with not having a license or penalty fines should you be cited for the no-no of being license-less, so make it easier on yourself and be current with your TDL. A current TDL is SEXY! At this time, let me throw in the number of my favorite bonding company, 713-223-3101. Ask for Sam, Jessie or Mark. Anything you could want to know about your license is available at http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/. Speaking of driving, there is a new program to help cut down on drunk drivers. The police can actually arrest you INSIDE the bars, before you leave now. You need to be aware and responsible. See the article at http://www.click2houston.com/news/8230615/detail.html.

Sherry Stell, the goddess / consultant for the brand spanking new Sona MedSpa (713-621-7662, www.sonahouston.com) told me that if anyone calls her and books a Botox Party, she will give them a one time free Botox treatment. Call her for details about the spa and the restrictions about the Botox party. What a fabulous idea for a girly-girl party! Botox is effective in treating frown lines and crow's feet. It produces results that allow for some natural movement, yet still produce exactly the desired effect on wrinkles and furrows. While there is no downtime, results are typically visible in two to three days, but may take up to a week to fully develop. Those results usually last three to four months or more. All treatments are performed by either a Physician's assistant or Registered Nurse, and don't forget the Sona Botox Party Hostess receives one complimentary treatment with 5 paid guests. Your guest will receive a 10% discount on their Botox at your party. Call Sherry at Sona MedSpa at 713-621-7662 for more information and to book your private party. You can also email Sherry at sstell@sonamedspa.com. Wouldn't it be fun to host a Botox Party at a bar? Now there's one promotion I haven't put together yet.
