hitch in the ol' git-along

[fflo]

Had a session with Massage Meredith at work today. The office picks up part of the tab, but I still don't often do it, what with my shaky-at-best financial circumstances. MR makes it tempting, though, putting it on our tabs, which are due, as far as I can tell, "whenever."

For a few days now I've had an increasingly stiff lower back. You'd think it would have happened while sleeping on a couch over the weekend, but it didn't hit until after I'd returned to my own bed. M. suggested the couch may've actually been BETTER for the back than the bed; though I just flipped the mattress last week, there could well be something to that. The stiffness/soreness is causing an odd sensation of not feeling able to stand up fully straight. Being at the desk/computer all day isn't helping anything either, I'm sure.

I've got a new stretch to try, though. Doesn't look like it'd stretch yer lower back, but by gum if it doesn't. Kinda hard on the knees for a fatty, though.

In other matters, I'll probably have a friends-only musing about some old relationship stuff here before long, for those of you who don't mind that sort of thing too much.

Bummer about yer back. Walking helps me, too, sometimes with the lower back thing. Definitely sitting all day doesn't!

Dancing could help, too. Gonna be dancing this Saturday. You coming?

Sure! Where should I meet you?

I'm going to the rec center tonight again---last night just played ping pong there, no cardio kinda stuff. That was fun, though. My buddy bigfinedaddy calls the place "the fitness arcade" to capture the spirit of plentitude (or just "the building" fer short/quick). We're gonna have a swim party there Friday.

Remind me to tell you about Superman.

Goodrich Hall on Main St. in Wmstwn. Show starts at 9, but if you show up earlier we could grab dinner. There's a good Thai restaurant just down the street.

I like "the fitness arcade." Kinda sounds like one what with ping pong and swimming. Have fun at your party! (although you'll have to leave early, if you're going to get here in time.)
