Easily manipulated

• "Your entire neck's a bit of a disaster area" she said, while I kept my eyes closed and tried not to whimper as lumps that felt the size of marbles were eased out of my musculature.
  
  
• "You fat bastard. I thought you were pregnant when you got out of that car..."
  [sigh]
  Mothers, eh? What can you do with them?
  
  
• Bit of a result on the physical creativity front, what? There will probably be constructional photos appearing soon. Initial premise - quercus; enabling tech and sage advice - jarkman; burns, cuts, swearing, misplaced punctuation and (crucially, I think) idiot grin a mile wide - model's own. An acceptable substitute for dressing up, 'dancing' and deafness? The jury's out, but it's working for me. Ok, there's no particular reason why one can't do both, but... I'm not sure.

Yeah, but aren't those injected anaesthetics brilliant?! No pain, but you can still feel them digging around in you with a blunt fork.

What anaesthetics? This was an osteopath with fingers of steel.

She did that neck-twist-BANG-bloody-hell thing too. I tried not to think of similar ninja moves which usually end up with a body in a heap on the floor.

Ah, well the lump I had seen to that was on my neck was a cyst, and a somewhat entrenched one, so it involved lots of digging around in there. Glad to hear that yours was much more sanitary!

Was this at work today???

[hirez.livejournal.com]

Yup. It seems I've done myself a set of damage through falling off things, stress and poor posture (no great surprise there), but since it's all muscular it's easily repairable.

Not as good as eppidurals when you cant feel your legs.

You're just showing off - most people have to drink nineteen pints to get that sort of result. :p

Or have their hands removed.

MUMMY!

MUMMY!

One of the more common reasons for epidurals.

I watched my ex-wife (and mother of offspring) being eviscerated by some descendant of Caesar. With the aid of an epidural, she was watching it too. Now that was impressive.

[sheepthief.livejournal.com]

Yep, and that's part of the reason I chose the term.

I'm not sure I'd see losing the feeling in my legs as good, actually!

(I know what you meant;) )

Aren't osteopaths fun?

I'm paying you how much to beat seven shades out of me?!

But you'll feel better after it. *grope grope* Oh yes, I see the problem. Now, just relax...

Nowadays, I welcome the feeling of a dull clunk in my back: ooh, that's obviously found where it should be sitting.
