Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'll look and see if I can find a way to describe / picture my stretches. Which is fun because my hip is killing me. I torqued it a few days ago and travel is just not helping. Massive stretching and soaking in a tub is helpful. I throw Advil at it but it's not very helpful. Massage helps too. I'll see if I can find pictures. After a hot bath. Because my hip hurts.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

A hot bath was in my future tonight, but then we went to do the week's grocery shopping at 9:00, and when we came home and put stuff away, we decided to flip the mattress (NOT a euphemism) and put the heated pad on it. I'm hoping sleeping on a heated pad all night might help with some of the tight muscle stuff.

Anyway, too much goings-on = no bath tonight.

And actually, it's 12:30. I gotta get my ass to bed.

Heating pads are good too. I can't really take a useful bath at home, so it's heating pads there.

Best thing about San Diego might actually be the tubs. I'm loving being able to take a bath.

Oh, baths are gooooood. Stretch, massage and hot water - best things for hips.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

My hip pain isn't muscle pain, I don't think. It's more twingey stuff in the joint itself. That's different from what you guys are talking about, right? It's the thing that's worse during various points of my menstrual cycle and also before storms.

I've got tendonitis, actually. And hormonal changes can totally mess things up for me. When the tendons flare and get inflamed and mad, it spirals. So there's muscular and everything but it starts with the tendons and goes to hell.

And it goes in and out of alignment in the socket.

Good stuff.

I miss the rheumatologist that I trusted to stick a needle full of steroids in. The shots sucked and ached for a couple of days but steroids are scary magical for a while.

Our wings are not tired.

Pix, why no baths?
