Bloody hell, my body hurts especially in my back, still this is a fine change from the usual problems with the belly I suppose. This is a real weird problem, the other day it began while walking and today the same but worse. Why walking can cause backache I have no idea, I would have expected legs or feet to complain but am surprised by the actual location of stiffness and pain.
And last night I was at La Viva at Chijmes with colleagues from work, quite nice but not a world-beater. Plenty of tapas but somehow not a really satisfying meal. But the amazing news is that I was reasonably restrained on the wine front and stayed completely away from the Sangria, mind you I have never understood why someone should want to muck about with wine. Added to which I tore myself away at 9:30. Put these things together I was not faced with the aching head or whatever from over indulgence for a change. So I am extremely annoyed that I have a complaining body having avoided self inflicted problems. And this is another nasty wrinkle, now that I don’t drink on a daily basis I can actually get hangovers, something which does not seem to occur if you booze daily. Having said that, I do not think that excessive drinking to avoid hangovers is actually a sensible alternative.
But I haven't gone as far as the charmer above!
After the day off for walking yesterday I felt that perhaps I should do a little longer today and walked to the Esplanade, cut up to the seaward end of Boat Quay and returned. About fifty five minutes so the longest lunch time walk so far admittedly, but why the pains in my back?
However we have arranged a cure, Alice is picking me up early from work, we will go to Jack’s Place for a feed, preceded with a G&T and accompanied by a bottle of wine, then home to a hot bubble bath. I am quite convinced that this treatment will be effective, it probably puts back more calories than I walked off but never mind.
