Massage

[pegkerr]

Today, as part of their recognition of Administrative Professional Day, or whatever they're calling it these days, my firm had a couple of masseuses come in who give people backrubs. These women, whom we've had in before, are both very good, offering a table to lie down on, oils, etc.

I signed up for a fifteen minute session with one woman. She found a lot of knots in my back, and she said I was carrying a lot of tension, so I signed up for a second session in the afternoon.

Out of curiosity, I asked her where I fell in the continuum compared to most people she did, on a scale from one to ten, where one is the most relaxed and ten is the most tense.

"Oh," she said, "you're about a twelve or a thirteen."

I have a coupon for a free session tomorrow at the yoga studio across the street from my office. I think I will go over and do that during lunch.

I hope you won't be offended if I tell you this entirely fails to surprise me? Glad you got said massages.

Mmmm, yooooga.

Yeah, er, that was my thought, too. :-)

Sounds lovely....

Yay for free treats! I'm glad - methinks you MORE than deserve them!

Pssst - isn't tomorrow also a Certain Special Day?

Um, yes, I believe it is.

Oh my. 12 or 13 doesn't sound good. The yoga studio sounds like a good plan though, as does befriending a masseuse in training that needs a guinea pig. Thinking relaxing thoughts your way, but the knots in my shoulders are telling me I'm at 10 or 11, so that might not help much. :)

We know a very good massage therapist. He's kind of a member of the family. Anyway, if you'd like to continue with some massage, we can get you the hook-up.

Thanks. I will keep that in mind!
