Just booked myself a massage for Thursday

Tweet

I haven't had one in ages. The last time I scheduled one the therapist wound up calling out and I couldn't immediately reschedule since I had so much after-school tutoring going on. It eventually fell off the radar. I've been back to work for about 3 weeks now and man am I feeling it. I've already been dealing with sciatica and neuropathy but now I'm running back and forth between classrooms and the teacher's room when I don't have a class. I'm getting my steps! Unfortunately I also am getting a lot of pain and swollen calves and ankles. This evening I'm sitting here and feeling pain in my neck and traps (muscles between neck and shoulders). I decided enough is enough and booked myself a 90 minute deep tissue massage for Thursday after work. It is $110 plus tip which I think is a reasonable price. It isn't until 2:30 when I could be there at 2 but that gives me time to hit up the bank ATM to get cash for the tip. Yes prices of everything are up but I was lucky last year with all of the tutoring and coverages and I got a decent raise this year so I don't feel a shred of guilt about getting a massage. I will likely book another before I even leave the place in a couple of days. I deserve it.
