floatingleafSo, I've been having another long weekend, since I took some vacation time to see mellacita, whom I am meeting for lunch tomorrow. Or, technically, today, as it's somehow past midnight already. She comes to Chicago every once in a while, and we've been planning to meet for a few years actually, but it hasn't worked out so far. We ALMOST met in Toronto back in 2007, before the Eastern Promises premiere - that is, we sort of said hi above other people's heads, lol. So we have SEEN each other, but never actually talked in person. Time to fix that.:D
Also, I am almost done with Christmas shopping, and I have cooked insane amounts of food for the rest of the week. As well as responded to all the posts/comments I had been meaning to respond to. Catching up on emails is in progress, and I've been checking out discounted PC's through my company account, since my workplace has a deal with HP. I am totally getting myself a brand new desktop for Christmas, with a nice big-ass monitor for enhanced movie-watching experience. My dad promised to contribute to the cost, so it shouldn't be too pocket-crushing. *crosses fingers for a good deal*
In other news, I have just completed Anat Baniel's introductory DVD program for Healthy Backs. And I have to say again: this woman is a genius. Seriously, anyone with back pain/stiffness/injuries etc., check out this website: http://www.anatbanielmethod.com. The DVD's are pricey, but it's worth every penny. I am totally ordering the Healthy Necks & Shoulders program at the holiday discount price. These exercises make you aware of each & every vertebrae of your spine and able to bend luxuriously (and painlessly) like a cat in all directions. Oh, and also you are very likely to sleep like a baby afterwards. With no medication whatsoever. So take heart, all you stiff-necked computer addicts/insomniacs out there - hope is in sight.:D

that's great news about your computer. :D
Definitely.:D My dad just said they are going to give me $500. FIVE HUNDRED! That's, like, the full price for a reasonably good computer - or more than half-price for a REALLY good one.:D *bounces*
I'm glad those DVDs are helping you.
They are amazing. It's absolutely natural pain/tension relief with no negative side effects. And some really good side effects - like sleeping better, or feeling much more flexible. I find I no longer grunt and groan like an old lady when get out of bed in the morning.;)
