Ugh. So yesterday I was gonna do that piriformis mobility thing but by the time I got home from work my back was so fucked I couldn't even walk very well. I spent the evening in bed with fic and a heating pad. I think I need to give it a couple days off.
The other secretary is back from her vacation today, so at least I can do my hourly walk-arounds, again. That'll help quite a bit.
I put in a request to my PCP to see if I can get a referral to the MovNat guy in KC. It's on the Missouri side, though, so I don't know if that's doomed. If I can get the referral, it'll go through my insurance which would be really nice.
A friend of mine offered space in a hotel room at DragonCon and I said yes but now I'm having second thoughts. It's pretty expensive. With the con badge, hotel, and airfare, it'll wind up costing more than Comic-Con (since I had free rooming for that). There's the hassle of packing up four day's worth of food again (since I won't have friends feeding me from their kitchen), the idea of spending that much time around that much people I don't know at all, and not having a definite place I can flee for solitude. I'm not sure the experience will be worth the figurative and literal price. I hate turning down the opportunity, but now that I've had a couple days to consider, I'm not sure I want to do this. Thoughts?
Fashion talk! I went thrifting with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
julii_wolfe last week because I had (not kidding) two workable office outfits for summer. I gave her the directions "camo colors and black, texture is good but no design prints, knits only, medium tops for underlayers, medium or large for overlayers." She's a good shopping partner. She found several great pieces for me (she's the one who discovered the three major finds of the day) and didn't get hurt or offended when I turned down half of the stuff she pulled. I'm wearing one of them today. I need to find a way to photograph my outfits, at least for a while, to help track and inspire different combinations. I'm still navigating myself through my new style aesthetic. It's fun.
I want to hit the KC/Independence area thrifts soon, but I'm loathe to give up a Saturday.
This morning I woke up hungry again, so I made myself an actual breakfast, with duck eggs, and am feeling okay.
And speaking of fashion, today's Tumblr is Tuesday, April 21: Coats. Appropriate for the temperatures here today.
