It's parallel line day!
smonster, how's your hip/IT band?
Not so great. It's bad enough to give me trouble falling asleep. I'm wearing my SI belt right now, which helps some. I think because my joints are loose, my muscles tighten to compensate, but they overtighten and then I can't get realigned. I feel a perpetual need to pop my sacrum, but it won't unless I spend an hour or so lying on the foam roller and balls. And my left leg is so tight that my foot is sickled and hurts all the way down the outside. Yoga, yoga, yoga. Need to do yoga.
Uh. Thanks for asking.
Going to be hard not to spend money this weekend with friends in from out of town...

They need to buy you drinks.
Well, I have a gift certificate from my birthday for one of our favorite places, so I figure I can treat them and then they can treat me. And if I slip a little, it won't be the end of the world.

Yeah, unless I clock serious time on the foam roller, it doesn't help much. I just pop a DVD in the player and let it go.
I *think* the muscle that's the worst offender is the tensor faciae latae, but I will be damned if I can get it to chill the fuck out.

When I read this, I thought it said, “smonster, how’s your hip-hop band?” And I was like, “Whut?!”
Yo yo yo what's up yo?
tensor faciae latae
Huh. Just looked at a diagram and I think that may be one of my major culprits as well. My psoas is definitely involved. I just don't know what's chicken and what's egg, what's cause and what's effect.
My PT was very proud of how bad my psoas was when I came in. He'd show me off to adjacent patients.
HIPAA was not his strong suit, natch. But "jacked up" and "ita !'s psoas" were pretty equivalent back then. Probably worse now, with the general lack of exercise and stretching.

The foam roller seems to help with it somewhat, but won't get it to go away totally. Grumble.
