Now it is time for sleeping, but first, a party recap
Melissa's birthday is next week! But for whatever reason (time, probably, since I think her finals might be around the corner next weekend) her birthday party was tonight.
1. Chiropractor trip 2 was all right! I was in much less pain when I arrived than I had been earlier this week, and she's pretty sure a final check up late next week to be sure I don't suddenly seize up and get frozen in a painful rictus should take care of it. While that makes the whole of the experience pretty damned expensive (three trips in two weeks! Blargh!), I do see "not being in pain anymore" as a fair trade. It hurt to sleep, it hurt to sit, it hurt to do anything. I am NOT complaining about being able to do things like actually rest. That is way, way too dear to me to complain about it.
2. Melissa's party! We ate at Joe's Crab Shack, which was pretty all right despite smelling like shellfish and crab (smells that I find gross, but tolerable after a while, I guess), and involved a lot of spirited conversation in that It's a Big Party way. I had a lot of fun. Danny's on such an early schedule that I took him home after, and then met everyone up for mini-golf, which was Melissa's planned birthday outing.
We suck at mini-golf. So much so that the people waiting for us were clearly irate with us by the end of the course. But-- we also had fun. It was humid though, the mini-golf place is right nestled into a water park. Eesh.
Following that, we hit up the grocery store so Melissa could buy a cake for herself. I snagged some green jasmine tea for myself, which turned out to be pretty tasty. And then we played Apples to Apples at Christian's place. Apples to Apples is one of those board games I never remember how to play until someone re-explains the rules to me, and I've only played a few times. Personally, I regretted we couldn't play Scattergories; but I think I have an unusual and possibly unhealthy love for that game and its madness.
3. The bruise: I did tell the chiropractor about the bruises from last time and she seemed to take that into account when prodding my back this time. I may still have a bigger bruise in the morning, I'm not sure. It doesn't feel hot the way the eventual bruises did last time, though, so I have high hopes!
