Hot Wax Party

Would you believe me if I said the most relaxing thing I did this week was having my legs waxed?

It’s true.  Its one of the few things guaranteed to take my mind of my back pain for a few minutes and I actually find the slight pain associated with ripping the hairs out of my legs with warm wax kinda relaxing.  I once told one of the beauticians that I found getting my legs waxed relaxing and she looked at me like I was some sort of S&M freaker for the rest of the appointment! 

Which couldn’t be further from the truth… I don’t find pain erotic, and I can’t for the life of me understand why someone would willingly put themselves into situations to be deliberately stimulated in ways to elicit a pain response… it makes no sense!  I am pretty sure most chronic pain sufferers would agree with me…  pain just isn’t sexy.
