Slacker Injuries

You'd think since Jen Why slackers aren't out on weekends playing on a coed soccer team for people that used to good in high school and college, or playing epic games of frisbee with their chocolate labs, or learning conversational Spanish, or even cleaning their bathroom-they'd be injury free. No bruises or sore muscles. No minor sprains or tight hamstrings. And absolutely no achy back, superficial abrasions or broken bones.
Somehow I managed to turn my right shoulder into a cess pool of pain and agony. Well, okay, I know exactly how it happened. I ordered a movie On Demand. I was pretty stoked. It was one I've wanted to see since it first came out but never made it to the theatre. One of my favorite actors was nominated for an Oscar for his role in the film. So I embarked on a 24 hour furlough with 'Eastern Promises.'
I turned my phone off-no one would really need to talk to me for the next two hours. I turned off the overhead light to make it more like a movie theatre. And my bowl of popcorn was centered on my coffee table.
The film monopolized my attention within less than seven minutes. I leaned to the right, resting my arm on the armrest of my couch (futon), and eased my head down on my shoulder. Approximately an hour and 45 minutes later as the credits ran, I had the impulse to, I'd know, change the channel, go to the bathroom, grab a few kernels of my largely untouched popcorn. Whatever I thought I might do was curtailed by the inability to move my right arm. Followed a few seconds later by a faint twinge of control over my own muscles, trailed by the stabbing pain that came with trying to crack my arm and shoulder muscles out of atrophy.
A full 48 hours later I still don't have a full range of motion. It wakes me up when I roll over onto it at night. I don't see it getting better anytime soon. This weekend I'll have to cancel all my extracurricular activities, stay home and rent On Demand. Oh, wait...
