Recalibration

Massage appointment this morning, special offer of a steam bath to go with. She knew her stuff, and I had to remind myself that she could release the pain without beating me up. She did, too. Instead of tense and sore, I'm drowsy and achy, which is the right direction. Nicely steamed, so my sinuses are also much eased. Crud has been accumulating, much reduced now. Although, it's going to be a few days of more discomfort as I recalibrate. Like the clocks.

Bright grey monochrome skies, crisp fresh air, snowing off and on all day, little bitty nearly invisible flakes. No wind worth the mention, so the cold is inert, un-intrusive, benign. Drifting inside my own head, averse to movement, ambition, utility.

Hope you're feeling better soon, Z! I yearn for the hot springs of southern Japan ... that was Relaxation with a capital R, let me tell you.

I have yet to experience a massage. I am generally not a very tense person.

There is a large high pressure system here so it has been and will be clear and seasonally tepid.

On this day, 11-11, I'd like to thank you and D for serving, and to tell you I am sorry for what that may have cost you.
