I hurt my back. Its the kind of injury that MUST be stretched. Lying on the floor... I cant (talking to myself again. lol) Yes you can (My much cooler, tougher, more athletic, better-than-everyone-at -every-single-thing-but still humble-friend ,Carmens voice from ski trip years ago. I accidentally tried to go down a BLACK....fell immediately...too terrified to get back up and besides, I twisted my knee. To my humiliation, Carman skis up. lol) Get up I cant Carmens cut the crap look follows. No I really cant. Its okay. I called the Red Cross. You WHAT? (insert hysterical Carmen-laugh. This laugh is very contagious and makes you laugh also, which hurts if youre injured) its not funny. I cant do this. Trust me. Trust me. you can. You can do anything if you go slowly. Besides, you are not hurt and this is not an emergency. I fell down is not a reason to call the Red Cross. She has a point and-maybe- b/c shes a coach- I have this compulsion to NOT fail to rise to her expectation. I stand back up. She sees my wild animal who just got hit by a car look, frowns and quickly positions herself downhill and directly in front of me (but sideways and looking cool) .) and locks eyes with me... Okay...slowly...all the way...sideways to the left side ...PIZZA, DEANA!!!...(sigh..) to the left side of the mountain....zig-zag....okay...(10 minutes later)...and back to the right...dont worry about the people pointing and taking pictures and snickering as they ski by you... She stayed right with me the whole way, coaching and cracking up, off and on. And an hour later, there we were-Almost to the bottom of the mountain. lol Soooooo.....all that to say...Imma stretch my back now...slowly. Its dreadful pain, but its necessary and I can do anything if I just go slowly and dont call the Red Cross. Thanks, Carmy! Wish you were here. Miss you so much.
