There is never any question…

For the last few months I’ve been receiving a particular form of physiotherapy called “Intramuscular Stimulation“. It involves a physiotherapist digging acupuncture needles into spasmed muscles and worming those needles around to trigger the release. Sometimes it causes quite colourful bruising.
I went for a treatment on Thursday… just two days before I was due to leave for a vacation in the Bahamas. Unfortunately, this treatment left me with a rather large, angry bruise on my right pectoral muscle. Despite my best efforts with distilled witch hazel and arnica gel, the bruise is as nasty and purple as ever. Ah well… fuck it.
Our accommodations in Nassau are with a friend who has a condo on the beach… She’s a real sweetheart, but cracks me up. As we sat at her kitchen counter, drinking $6-a-bottle-gin and tonics (made in someone’s bathtub, I’m sure!), the boyfriend said, jokingly, “Did you tell M, that it wasn’t ME who gave you that bruise?”
“I didn’t have to. She knows that if YOU did it, you wouldn’t be here with me right now…. You’d still be in hospital.”
