Well that comment didn't suck. What's up Corvidae?
I would probably completely flip out if a stranger like that identified the dog. "Is that pilot?" Just typing it gives me chills.
I've gone to two massage therapists now. The real kind, not the quick kind. Second dude is actually real knowledgeable, saw him Wednesday. I set a couple more appointments.
I'm miserable. My right hand is pretty much useless without a thumb or index. Can't do anything with it like zip up a sweater or put on my own shoes. Miserable.
PT, yes. Chiropractor, yes. But both require health insurance or the tabs are spendy and mine doesn't kick back in until March 1. I SO with you were nearby, we'd move you in. For now just massages but I desperately need to get all three going and get this damn ring to release.
I'm stretching, heat pad, knowing my limitations, massages.... not working.
You should see how many of them maga dudes live in Costa Rica. Fuckin gross. And you see them occasionally at breakfast with their date before it's time for the date to go home. Ages there don't matter. Maga hat guy knows it. Tiny little kid at the table with like 3 or 4 old ass white dudes.
We had to leave the whole country.
Imagine a super gay dude tossing a handful of peanuts to nearby crows and then shouting from across the street in a very demure and sweet voice "Oh my god, is that Pilot?" That's the perfect scenario for non-creepiness, and fortunately how it happened.
Your discomfort intrigues me!! That doesn't mean I'm glad you're in pain by any means. It's just the kind of stuff I like to work with. Some gentle strengthening is probably in order once the tight stuff is released. Your massage guy sounds like he would know what needs to get stronger to stabilized your posture so that nerves stop getting crushed. I will say though that a majority of this kind of problem comes from the slouch we all do at desks and on phones, driving, so on. We're not doing anything wrong, we just have a culture that revolves around devices and such that perpetuate slouchiness. Usually at the very basic level it involves releasing pecs, SCMs, scalenes and suboccipitals, and strengthening rhomboids, mid to low traps, and paraspinals. In a nutshell. Of course each body is unique and that's where your massage therapist or pt or chiro come in.
Can you tell I'm really into this shit? Hope it's helpful and not annoying.
I guess it's a good thing I don't have any plans to go to Costa Rica. Actually almost would have been there about right now if not for some financial stuff and the retreat getting canceled and not wanting to go anywhere without Pilot anyway so fuck that and fuck those pervs. Seriously. Why do some dudes need to be with super young chicks??? They trying to get their childhood back or what?
