Quite literally a pain in the back

[funkyinfishnet]

Two days into my long work week and something painful had happened to my back. I think I must have spent too long bending over to deal with key cabinets because the muscles in my lower back are really painful and tight. I've likely strained them or something. The last time I did that, I was in secondary school. It's a very unique kind of pain and I know it'll only go away with rest and time. Urgh. I've been treating it with a hot water bottle after work each night and Anthony's been giving me great strong back rubs too. I often do the same for him as his muscles frequently tighten due to his anxiety disorder.

Then my work computer decided that it wasn't going to allow me access to randomly decided internet sites so Livejournal was out of my reach and I really wanted to bury myself in fic to deal with the pain. Grrr. Thankfully AO3 was still working fine. And today it seems the internet is behaving itself again. According to our IT department, it was a widespread problem yesterday. They did ask for details of any sites I have trouble accessing......yeah, I wasn't going to reveal how I deal with downtime at work.

This song and performance have been in my head all week. I find it very smile-making and exactly what I need to lighten my mood and make me feel good. Thank you, America's Best Dance Crew!
