    Woke up with a raging headache. Had a lil spew, some ibuprofen, my anti-sads, and some plain bread.

    I slept from like ~8pm to ~11am, and I must have slept like an crooked croissant again.

    I’m starting to feel normal again.

    And hello Yarrabyte! Love the name! And I look forward to your basking in you bot-presence!

    Forgive me DT & especially Bottom_racer for I have apparently lied to you all.

    It turns out that when putting my shoes on, I do in fact go left first when sitting down. It’s only when standing up do I go right first.

    Please accept this apology and I appreciate your understanding.

    Parkrun PB in sunny Lalor this morning. Quite happy with that actually. Now at the stage where I’m enjoying running rather than feeling like it’s a punishment.

    Guy next to me in the laundromat just discovered his airpods in the dryer while taking his nice, dry clothes out. RIP.

      Apple, our shelter and our strength, you listen in love to the cry of your people: hear the prayers we offer for our departed airpods, right and left. Cleanse them of the laundry water and grant them the dryness of hairdryers. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Air-men.

    My migraines occur due to a shoulder imbalance. My right shoulder raises up (like a shrug that’s stuck) and rolls forwards.

    I asked chatgpt to give me some ideas on how to deal with it.

    It gave me some exercises. I did 2 of them. The pain reduced significantly.

      You’re on this. You are super aware of your body and that counts for a lot.

      and rest up , hugs

      If Dandenong rehearsals are a regular thing you can swing by my place and I’ll have a look at it. I was no good at the business of myotherapy but I was good at the myo part.

      If you think it’s nerves, have a read up on brachial plexus flossing.

      There’s a series of orthopeadic tests call upper limb tension tests (1-4) designed to target different nerves. Most of them involve winding your arm up in a certain position which will put a stretch on the nerve then moving your head away from it (either rotation or lateral flexion depending on the test). Brachial nerve flossing would be along the lines of loading up the arm then doing small pain free motions of your head in the recommended direction to gently tug at the nerve freeing it up and hopefully helping with your issue.

        I’ll read up more about it today and give it a go.

        Honestly, I was shocked the chatgpt exercises didn’t make it worse lol

        The pain isn’t that bad, but it destroys my ability to function. Absolute agony, nausea, pretty much bedbound.

    Oh my bedroom was dusty 🫣 but now de-feraled, clothes away. Floors done. Dusted. Bathroom spruced. Gonna have a shower and give that a wipe down while I am in there. Not perfect but feel like I am back on an even keel cleaning wise.

    Nearly time to crack a beer I reckon

      I went even though I really wasn’t feeling it this morning. Now I can sit back with a pot of tea and feel virtuous all morning.
