The Martin WooHoodStock Thread

[llp]

Okay - comments requested - is it normal to have some really large bruises after a massage? They hurt only if I touch them but there are 4 really ugly ones on my leg! But my leg and back do feel a little better in spite of these bruises! Just not sure I should do that again!

Hey all *waves*

Sorry I've been a bit absent as of late. I wood have popped by sooner but I've been bedridden with my illness the last month-ish (although it's partially my own fault for overdoing it when I went away with family for a few days ) Anywho... I hope everyone's keeping well

Life doesn't allow enough time to read this thread! However, a quick scan of the page seems to indicate congrats are in order for Wendy and healing vibes are needed for Laurie.

*joins you in congratulating Wendy and sending healing vibes to Laurie*

Has Lastrequest been by recently? I've sent her a pm about something I was going to get her at AT6 and haven't had a response yet.

*waves* here I am and I've just replied to your pm, thanks hun

*runs around thread nekkid*

Why do I always make the wrong comments around my parents....have to take them out for dinner...again

*huggles Woohoos tightly*

Oooo what comment did you make? Was it about dinner or is the dinner to make up for the comment?

Haven't seen her for awhile

*waves* Hello you

I've just heard that I have a cousin living in Canada Yellowknife, up in the Northern Territories, so about 2000 miles north of Vancouver.

I think I mentioned a few months back that I'd heard from an aunt of mine asking me if I wood take a DNA test in order to prove that the person in question was definitely related, and it turns out that she is!

Always nice to find more family

I really hate homework. I have to design a research project and I have no idea how to describe how I'd analyze the data collected. I've never analyzed data before in my life! I hate research projects! I guess I should be glad I don't actually have to carry the research out.

I wish I could offer some help/advice but my analysis skills only really stretch in any depth to film/tv (for my degree) are there examples of projects you could maybe have a look at get a better idea? what sort of data would the project be collecting?

Hi Wood people.

I don't believe we've met, so I thought I'd wave hello to you

Not to my knowledge... was it quite a severe massage I've never had one myself but I wouldn't have thought it normal to bruise from one... if you're bruising so easily might be adviseable to ask your doc??

Depends on the person - some people do bruise easier.

On your legs or arms I wouldn't worry, if you got bruises on your back or other places I'd be concerned...

And hi waving person Lol

Evening Woohoos

I want to come more often, but life happens. And I actually have no good reason this time. I finished my winter semester at the end of September. I had the last three weeks off, and didn't work that much because there is no one at the Space Center at the beginning of the school year (it picks up around Christmas). Just take this week: I'm only working at the dance school, not studying nor working anywhere else.

Sigh. Yep. It has a habit of doing that Always good to see you though

Want to know what happened?

DOCTOR WHO.

I watched it like crazy when I finished school, and then watched Torchwood simultaneously, and omgitissogoodwhydidn'tIwatchedthisbefore? Only catching a breath right now because I finished the 2009 Specials, and I need some time before I can watch the new Doctor.

Another one bites the dust

I'm SO excited! I'm leaving in little over two weeks! (On November 4th exactly.) I still haven't bought a luggage, and I need to make sure I have everything I need. Omg, so much to do.

*bounces excitedly* Can't wait to meet you!

Caught an episode of Supernatural last night - Chris Heyerdahl really gets around doesn't he? And almost always playing an evil part

He does it so well, that's the thing

Now here is an interesting dilemma - Somewhere packed away in a box in my house are the shoes I am suppose to bring to AT6 for EH-T. The boxes that I can't really move right now. So how do I search for them if I can't move the boxes around? OY! Suggestions?????? please!!!

I second Jumble's suggestion - don't think about it yet! There's still a couple of weeks for you to feel lots better before you tackle it

[Jumble]

*waves to Amy* Sorry you've been sick, but good to see you back

Laurie, I don't think it's normal to be bruised just from a massage Was it painful during the treatment? If not, I'd get it checked out because there could be an underlying problem.

It's OK! I just needed to vent. There are examples, at least the prof said she posted some, but I can't find them. I have a friends who took the class a few semesters ago, but that just confused me more since she used a different kind of research method.

That is very cool, Jumble!

Just need to say that I hate being the bearer of bad news. It's been a challenging day. The dark side of my job is very dark, unfortunately.

On the upside, I saw someone postpartum today who told her that I gave her the exact birth that she wanted (VBAC, epidural, short). I can't take credit for the latter, but it was nice to hear.

AT6 coming soon! Really looking forward to a long weekend away with y'all.

*huggles Woohoos, especially the absent-returned Woohoos*

*bounces out*

[Nolamom]

Laurie - bruises are *possible*, but really, really, rare. My husband sometimes gets small ones because he's on serious blood thinners. (We both get massages once a week). If the therapist wasn't particularly rough on you, I would definitely have a check up with your doctor.

That is very cool, Jumble!

It is, but there's a very sad story behind it - her mother died a couple of years ago and never knew that her daughter was looking for her

*hugs* for the downside But the upside makes it all worthwhile I bet

Looking forward to seeing you too

Welcome back and thanks for the message.


LLP, I have had big bruises from a massage once, I bruise easily. Oh, and it would be a real shame if you couldn't find those shoes in time for me to embarass myself at AT6.

Oh he does so.

I will third the previous suggestions. Don't! I doubt EH-T will mind overly if you don't bring them.

Although EH-T, what shoe size are you? I don't have a pair with money slots but I do have a pair of heels of the type you are seeking. If they fitted you could probably call on them as a back up if it came to it?

get the cats to look?

Or this!

I've just heard that I have a cousin living in Canada Yellowknife, up in the Northern Territories, so about 2000 miles north of Vancouver.

That's cool but... sad. Still, finding long lost family is always a mixed bag but ultimately, the positive is, you know now and can work on building that relationship with Canadian relatives for the future.

Okay - comments requested - is it normal to have some really large bruises after a massage? They hurt only if I touch them but there are 4 really ugly ones on my leg! But my leg and back do feel a little better in spite of these bruises! Just not sure I should do that again!

If you bruise easily, maybe. If you don't then no. It might also depend on the type of massage as some are more deep tissue than others. I have had a Turkish massage before which is really rough but it didn't bruise me. I do not bruise at all easily though.
I think I would take Jumble and Nola's advice and go see someone about that. Bruising easily is often a sign of underlying health issues - even something simple like anemia which can be easily sorted - so it's worth getting it checked out. Might also explain why you put your back out again too.

*huggles* for the bad days but glad there's good to make up for it.


Nola, I had to at the cat one.

*huggles everyone*. Lovely to see some semi regular faces flying through the thread today.



I am full of cold. Again. Still, getting it out the way this week is a good thing I suppose. However I am putting off installing my new hard drive. I know it has to be done but it's about 3 days work. I just don't feel up to it right now. Perhaps I will leave it until after half term. Instead I've been doing this. I am up to 54 stations now but struggling without looking at a tube map. Biggest waste of time ever but, oh so addictive!

I got some money for doggysitting...and mom said I should give her some for all the worries she had and help she gave during that time I told her I *could* just take 'em out for dinner...macdonalds or so....she took that seriously and no mcdonalds because it was closed...so had to take 'em out for real Not that I mind though

That is very cool, Jumble!

Thanks, Nola. I'll have a look at that. My textbook on the subject is so boring it puts me to sleep. I haven't had that happen since undergrad!
