Today's massage was pretty darn good. This was the first time in recent memory that I showed up for a massage with nothing actually hurting or needing the therapeutic work. So on the therapist's suggestion, I opted for a relaxation massage. That was nice, and he (he and I are new at working together) seemed much more comfortable in this mode than the sports-therapy massage I requested two weeks ago. So that went well.

I'd had Wrenb drop me off for my appointment, we'd been doing errands together, so I opted to walk home via the bike trail. Less than two miles, I figured...
(How tough could it be, right?)

Oh dear.

Upside: no muscles are sore, my back is fine and my endurance for such things is hugely increased over the last time I took a long walk like this.

Downside? My shoes/boots weren't entirely the optimal choice for a long walk down the asphalt bike path. No heel blisters, thank Hermes, but I have blisters. Under my calluses. On the balls of both feet.

And the first of the early morning workouts with Tal and Tshuma. Like ready to work at 8 am early, when I usually roll out of bed between 8 and 8:30 kind of thing.

Oh well. I'll make it march somehow, and Tal probably has ane encyclopedia of things I could work on without straining foot blisters.

I have faith. Tomorrow will be good, and I will work hard, because I want to be tougher and stronger.

That's that.

Now to check in on Spouse and Tshuma, and rustle myself some more food.

His name is David. But, BUT DANNIEL IS BACK!

I even got to say hello as I cleared my tab for the day!

You like him so much that I really should give him a try.

Mmmm, hmmm!

And I have seven and a half more credits saved up!

So every two weeks for the next three months!

I want a massage!!!!


Plus: I hate it when you get caught out with bad footwear. I am only a 15 minute walk from flat -> work and still, some shoes......ouch! Hope your blisters clear up soon.

I've been getting massages somewhat regularly over the last 20 years or so. I've had some great ones, some poor ones, and a few that literally changed my life.
Of the two that changed my life, both were from friends. And in times of extreme stress and turmoil.

*sigh*

Looking like I will have to lance one blister to work out this morning. That's not too bad.
