"Yeah, I've got my confirmation receipt right here," you say as you slide the computer printout across the counter to Nina.
"Oh, you got one of the really nice chalets," Nina says with a smile as her long-nailed fingers dance across her computer keyboard, checking you in. "Decided you wanted to pamper yourself, huh?"
You blush a bit at how much you've spent on this trip being pointed out, however obliquely, and nod.
"Nothing to be ashamed of there!" Nina chides you. "A girl's got to do that, sometimes. I really think you're going to like the place you booked."
"That's what I'm hoping," you say, finally allowing yourself a smile.
"You're probably really tired from the long drive, but if you do find yourself with a little energy tonight you might want to stop by the ski lodge. It's ladies' night, and we've got the house band performing."
"I just might," you reply, picking up your key and starting back towards your car to fetch your bags.
