Tuesday night I went to sleep with the beginning of a kink in my neck. Wednesday morning I awoke to it fully formed and restricting movement. I had to go in to work for a meeting and one of my coworkers did some massage on it which I hate as it is usually equally painful to me unless the person is very gentle, but I was in enough pain to allow it. Now it is still there and a little worse, plus my flesh feels bruised from the massage, though at the time it did help.

I probably should stay home today and rest, though there is really no rest to be had with this kink, and my sick days and benefits do not kick in until next week. Go figure.
