The physical therapist taped my shoulders back to train them to sit correctly.  They ache.

Oh my god, that sounds so painful! :( Hope you're okay.

It's honestly not SO painful, but at my age I have to suppose it wouldn't be likely that one could retrain all the muscles around my shoulders without a little discomfort. It was just that, after a long day at work and all the exercises the PT had me do, as well, y'know, all the muscles were kind of annoyed, anyway. I'm feeling better after sleeping, and I didn't even ice anything or take pain killers. (Although possibly I should have, for my neck - I can't seem to stop it kicking in when I'm doing the exercises. I'm going to have a Schwartzenegger neck if I don't watch out.)

Well I hope it's not as bad as I'm imagining it to be! And pain killers and ice sound like a good idea.

(The woman I flirt with at work found the idea of my shoulders being taped back to be strangely erotic, somehow...)

I'm thinking some nice red wine, and a shoulder massage, perhaps your co-worker would oblige? ;)

She made some implication to the effect, but I don't take her flirting too seriously. :)

you work kinda near the mall ...if Brookstones is still there maybe a product demo would help if you found the
right one.

While I worked there.... my back was pretty happy....

Not a bad idea at all. I'm not sure if they are still there, but now that you mention it I did see a massaging chair in the walkway near Sears. One has to put money in it, but it might be worth it.
