"…Living only for the moment, turning our full attention to the pleasures of the moon, the snow, the cherry blossoms and the maple leaves; singing songs, drinking wine, diverting ourselves just floating, floating….refusing to be disheartened, like a gourd floating along with the river current; this is what we call the floating world…” Asai Ryoi, in Ukiyo Monogatari (Tales of the Floating World, 1661)

Flat
So, I am laying here flat on my back staring at the conference room ceiling. Yesterday I had the wonderful experience of a muscle spasm in my back - actually high up under the left shoulder. Most likely a result of too many hours at the computer (work) and poor posture last week manifesting itself this week. At its peak I could see the muscle clenching and unclenching. So, I made it through the day by the expedients of muscle relaxants and laying flat on my back. Today is much better. Still laying on my back when I have to, but Advil is doing the job of holding the worst of it off. Loads of fun.
