Head kinda above water...
Oct. 1st, 2008 06:57 amWork, well, has been sucky but its been productive. I'll be heading out to Farmington, NM next week for a few days with a supplier. I'm just having to hit the guys in the lab to get me my test results so I can fix stuff. Other things are blowing up but they are mild. I was limping pretty badly by the end of the day yesterday...I was back and forth so many times to the factory that I think my body had enough. Got off of work mostly on time and headed to Glenn's office. He was sorry that he hadn't been there and winced when I walked in. So he adjusted and adjusted and it hurt. Usually there is a nice euphoric release of pressure but this time...I didn't get that for a while since the muscles were so annoyed. I wasn't limping but things were aching. And true to his word I was nauseous and sore...still very sore now but nothing like yesterday.
I ran two errands afterwards to just make sure I walked around for a while. I headed to sports authority for tennis balls (to lay on to relieve tension) and they had sales on shirts that looked nice. Imagine my surprise when I fit in a smaller size than usual. yay! Then I headed over to performance cycle and got new glove, new cleats and 2 new pairs of bike shorts. Then I headed home where mel was cooking dinner. It wasn't very appetizing to me but after a bit the nausea left and I was kinda hungry. I ate a small bit and went back for a little more. It was very comforting and that was what I needed. I then started in on the documentation and got a bit further...not where I wanted to be but eh. I got on my gear and we headed to FP after I had a quick chat with mom. She has the worst habit of calling when I'm heading out the door.
Practice was good sized and folks were out enmasse. I got dressed and then waited for ed to do some singles. Melee's got called and we headed off out of the eric and ran through stances, shots and theory. I'm not sure how long we worked but I crammed the information into my head and I think asked intelligent questions. I just need to train the body to work on a few things and it was interesting to see that some of the internal stuff in kung fu completely applies. I chatted with folks after I got out of armor and then I had to sit down..I chatted with other folks and then mel was chatting with Walrick on war stuff and I wanted to go home. He still wanted to do pickups so I snuggled up against my armor bag and fell asleep. I have no idea how long I was out but when I was woken up I was cold and mel was telling people to grab my armor bag. I grumbled about that but when
desert_moloch helped me up I realized he was probably right. I got to the car and we drove home.
Fed the cats, pulled off my boots and started peeling clothes off as I went down the hall. I was very, very cold and was grateful that I had had my new nalbinded hat and my light wool fighting pants on...but cold. I showered and mel made me a huge cup of sleepy time tea. I drank some ibuprofen down with the tea and was very happy to snuggle into bed. Sometime in the night obsidan had crawled under the covers to snuggle with me. I got up to hit the bathroom about 5 and butterfly took my spot so I had to move them both to get back into bed. It was a nice temp in the house since we had left the front door open. Very cool and nice.
So, I'm feeling much better today but still feeling behind and still sore. I'm enjoying my coffee and getting things organized. Gonna be another busy day at the bomb factory but I get to see the ENT about my sinuses this afternoon. The CT scan came back "normal" according to the GP that is covering for my GP but I want the ENT to verify this as well. We shall see.
