I took a muscle relaxer at work today. Not a wise idea, maybe - I have cycled through the following reactions to the drug: first a feeling of being slightly less in pain, and a subsequent better mood; second a feeling of intense loopiness; third a feeling of intense drowsiness and dizziness, with a headache, where I wanted to do nothing but lay down and go to sleep. Those were followed by it wearing off, just in time for me to have about half an hour before I go home. The drug made it a not very productive day at work, but it did allow me to stretch my muscles out enough to allow me to turn my head to the right with minimal pain, and I can now walk without feeling like something is ripping the muscles apart in my upper arm. I'm hoping the muscles won't freeze back up overnight, but I'm cautiously optimistic right now that this whole thing may be ending soon. Could I actually finally be recovering? Good god I hope so!
Also, the last two days at work have been marked by numerous Internet problems, resulting in us not having any connection for more than half of the time. Those of you who are office workers will understand how horrible a day is when you can't fool around online. EXCRUTIATING! I'm hoping the problems are fixed now, so that we won't have to go through this again tomorrow. We'll see.
Okay, I'm going to pack up and get ready to go home now. I just wanted to send you all a quick update on the state of my seized up muscles. Send good healing thoughts my way! I'm hoping to be back to normal by the end of the week. :)
Less noise, more me

Healing thoughts are being sent as I type this.
I hope you feel better soon!
But loopy Denise is a fun Denise, so I think you should keep taking those bad boys at work... :)
Glad you're feeling better-ish!
