Bunch of wanna blessed-bes. Nowadays every girl with a henna tattoo and a spice rack thinks she's a sister to the dark ones.

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.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

unless I spend an hour or so lying on the foam roller and balls.

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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

smonster, how's your hip/IT band?

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

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.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Hrrrrmmmm. I've been fighting a UTI for about a week now. About every third morning i wake up with that feeling. you know, that one. Very uncomfortable. I chase it away over the course of the day with gallons of water, cranberry supplements, and twice with a single dose of Azo in the morning. I'm starting to worry that it's that same infection and not fully going away, but there isn't any blood and it does go away....and i'm getting on a plane Monday and leaving town for the week so of course i'm totally paranoid that something's gonna blow up while i'm out of my medical coverage area...or that if i get paranoid and get an emergency appt tomorrow i'll be miserable on antibiotics while travelling (i tend to have a very negative reaction to antibiotics no matter how much probiotic supplement i take to combat the side effects.) *sigh* I'm leaning towards wait and see and just hoping that i don't have to pay for an out of network dr out of state if i can't shake it off.

erin, if you start to get any kind of pain in your side or back, go to the doctors.

erin, I hate that. Boo hiss.

So, I just turned down getting lunch from the super delicious and totally reasonable bbq place. I will be strong.

I will eat my coworkers' leftovers
