Forced Relaxation

My back has been continuing to give me hell – this time in my lumbar area. I tweaked it a couple of weeks ago, and I’ve been slowly trying to take care of it… but between work making that difficult, and sitting on a hard wooden bench for fucking jury duty I basically spent today mostly in bed, only getting out to eat or do a couple of chores. There was so much I wanted to do now that I’m back on a more normal schedule. Instead I laid in bed with plenty of heat, massage, and online chair shopping.

Last year when my back was giving me issues I found out the problem mainly resided in my old furniture — mainly the office chair and mattress. Well, the mattress has held up one year later, but my gaming chair has lost it’s padding. I’ve already got a couple of candidates I’m looking at. With the amount of time I spend at my computer doing animation, server work, website maintenance, and gaming (of course) I need a chair that can take a beating, and not make me feel like I’ve been thrown through a couple of mountains.
