You had to've been there...
Me (receiving a totally BRUTAL deep-tissue massage by K.): You know, after a day of doing massage my right shoulder is totally jacked-up right *here* (digging my thumb just into the space between shoulder and armpit).
K: The coracoid process?
Me: The coracoid process is more medial, isn't it?
K: No, the coracoid process, you know (crooking her pointer finger), it's the head of the pecker!
Me: WHAT?!
K: The bird's pecker!
Me: You mean the beak, right?
K: Yeah, the thing the bird pecks with. Damn, I can't get my tongue wrapped around my IQ today!
Much hilarity ensued. Also when I told her she'd make a great dominatrix (this while I was whimpering in pain as she was mauling my scapulae). She told me to bark like a dog...
Yes, Mistress!
Woof, woof.
"I can't get my tongue wrapped around my IQ today"
ReplyDeleteThat's verbal brilliance right there.
Hey, I was impressed enough to blog about it!
ReplyDeleteShe (K.) is my role model.
64 years old, works four ten-hour shifts weekly doing massage, has her private clients, too. Was a long-haul trucker for 27 years, then decided to change careers at age 59.
She is totally awesome!
Aw, I suspect you're just being modest- I'll bet you've inspired a bit of barking yourself since you've been a professional. (and prolly before then, too!)
ReplyDelete*blushes*
ReplyDeleteWell...YEAH!
WOW, I remember when K gave me a little foot rub when I was a test model getting a Slim n Sculpt. Man, that was a bit painful! And she even said that's her soft touch!
ReplyDeleteRawk on, girl! Dig those knuckles in-- you know we want it!
ReplyDeleteYou folks are tough. I'm a wimp, I want to relax, not wince in pain (one thing I learned, was to speak up if the pressure was to much).
ReplyDeleteMan, some people have all the fun.
ReplyDelete10% - I'm generally a total wimp when it comes to pressure, but in this case, I knew I needed it, and K. was the one to deliver!
ReplyDeleteAnd it's good that you speak up. A lot of clients (especially MEN) feel they have to be all macho, but then I notice they're holding their breath, or they're very tense OR their muscles are twitching...sorry, I'm going to ease up then.
Uncle Fester - who has all the fun?
Me or K.?!
