My Kingdom For A Massage*

My first karate class in about 2 months. I'm sore as hell already, in part due to the large amounts of walking today, to the midwife's office and back, and then tottering around midtown in the maternity Gap and H&M with Kit.

The soreness will of course only be worse tomorrow, when the parts other than my legs start to chime in loudly.

Lunch at the Irish pub near prezPreZ's work, which was really yummy. Kit met us for lunch which was cool... as was the weather. Fucking freezing again today, though not as cold as it was on Tuesday, which had windchill in the negative fahrenheit even, which isn't a temperature we reach that frequently here, even in winter. Lunch for me was the chicken pot pie, which tempted me last time and which was lovely and had a delicious flaky crust. I was tempted to get the fish and chips again like last time, which was phenomenal, but refrained and decided to try something else instead. PreZ had the shepard's pie, which he's had once before and loved. Kit got a burger and a huge plate of homestyle fries which looked awesome too.

And now I must go collapse into bed.



* Okay, I have no kingdom, but I'd still love a massage

Amen to the massage... I'd let a donkey kick me in the groin at this point if it meant I'd get a back massage after the act...

Yeah, sounds like you're in pretty desperate need of one then.

We were at the mall on monday, where they had those chairs you sit in and lean your face into a pad where some asian person works on your back. It looked so good, and that was even before karate and the corresponding soreness.

I've never had a proper massage, though I've wanted one for ages.

I'll give you a massage...


Just as soon as I finish walking across Patrick's back when I give him a massage :P

Heh. I think backwalking will be out for me ;)

I'm definitely considering getting a pregnancy massage at one point, there are actually people who do this/specialise in it. I'll wait until I really start getting the pregnancy aches further down the track though.

And at that point I'm also going to consider checking out a chiropractor too, to make sure that when carrying around more weight I'm doing it correctly and not screwing myself up. Most interestingly I found out that you can actually have a newborn baby adjusted within days of birth... a little post-birth tweaking, which might be nice after being squished through the birth canal.
