I find a massage helps with the occasional shoulder and back tension. Which means I get one about once or twice a year.
It's cheaper and more quickly effective than doctor's visit plus muscle relaxers.

Quick! Someone remind me that pulling away from all your friends because they're geting boyfriends/getting married/buying houses/having babies and hiding is a bad idea!
It's possible that I have issues a lifetime subscription.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ailleann, that is a bad idea. Making out with me, however, would be a good idea.

It's okay. It was hurting this morning, but not so much anymore.
Tomorrow will be interesting, as I am flying home and will be toting carry-on luggage on and off BART as well as, you know, in the plane.

Well, I will be prominently wearing my sling, so if someone doesn't fucking help me, I...will hurt myself.

P-C, definitely ask for someone to assist you when you get to the airport. Don't hurt yourself more than you already did.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I've only had a few proffessional massages- liked them , but I have to go thru a song and dance in my brain before I deal with it. partly because it is hard for me to 1) not do anything and 2) I can't talk to a stranger about it because, hey, stranger. I have a few friends that do it proffessionaly, and i should just have them do it -- I could at least talk to them. and there are times when I know it would be good for me. I get to sore to want to move, yet move I must do. and if tension is high , for whatever reason, I jump and tighten up when touched unexpectedly or in a 'wrong' way which is only the wrong way for the moment.
Interestingly, I had a lot of space issues, and now they are much more circumstantial. I accept ( and expect) more contact from this group. My neighborhood group is friendly - but there isn't a lot of hugging and kissing - but then again some do. but ass grabbing as greeting dosen't happen. and work friends don't touch , even the ones I've seen socially. -- but maybe that will be different in a few years.
