I have things in order for my trip to Tucson on Wednesday, and I unpacked about 342352562 boxes of books and put them away while searching for my 7th Sea books so I could pretend to be at least marginally prepared for the session next Friday. (I need to make an imperial decision about where that will be, or it'll never get done.)
Went to my first NERO event in a long while yesterday. Within the first hour or so of play, I was attacked at the tavern by an evil chaos blob and tripped over a brand new walkway that the Belgatos folks had installed.
Smacked myself really good against the concrete embankment around the play area and knocked the wind out of me. Spent much of the rest of the session moving around delicately and not moving my arm much because it made my back hurt quite sharply.
But I got to RP some and I didn't die. (:
Went home early to take a hot bath and fell asleep trying to watch the director's commentary for Benny and Joon. So I gave up and dragged myself to bed. Woke up the next morning and realized (....wait for it....) that I'd utterly forgotten to do any of my laundry for work today. So I'm going to go to work naked and skip Sunday gaming *again* to come home and get that taken care of.
And my back is still quite sore, but since my job shouldn't require any heavy lifting I should be okay.
Checked on Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Still not retired.

Date: 2003-07-30 12:58 pm (UTC)I took a hard fall like that a few years ago. Broke teeth... ug. Anyways, I was sore for a while after that, but it did certain things like break up a bunch of old adhesions. I ended up healing back better than before.
You might try just drinking a bunch of water, like 16oz or so, so that if that's the case you can flush out the toxins that have been released. They can make you sore if you don't.
That's one major reason why people often hurt the day after they get massaged if they don't drink some water right afterwards. The process breaks up adhesions.
