A REAL pain in the bum

I've no idea how I managed it.....but I've managed to pull a muscle in my gluteus maximus.
Fore the commoners amongst us, that's arse, or ass, or bum, or butt, or fanny(for US readers, definitely NOT fanny for European readers), or hole.

It's not a constant strain, but a darting pinch every time I lean forward. I now remember that it's there and take appropriate due diligence, but for the last 2 days I've been bending over and hopping back up with an 'Ooooooooh' reminiscent of a rather camp proctologist with a pinching fetish.

It was a source of amusement at first, but now it bloody smarts so it does!
Luckily the 'gettin jiggy' phase has now passed and I can rest my weary bone(s) for a few days , that is until we get good or bad news again which should be somewhere about the 26th.

Santa, I'm f&^%ing warning you buddy....

Dude, I had that same injury at the top of my buttocks or real lower portion of my back for about three and a half months over the summer...it blew. Santa is a fat man that lets kids sit on his lap and says ho ho ho! Sounds like a drunk with issues if you ask me. You have a great Christmas either way, k?

Well I'm constantly pulling or straining some bit or bolt of myself, I've just put a down payment on a sweet Audi A4...for my chiropractor.

But this is non existent until I forget it's there and then I get the shock in my butt and I jump up like a big tart.

Seriously, me and Santa are gonna have us some serious discussion by new years if he doesn't come up with the goods.

Dude, just SAY it. You sprained your butt. Don't hide it with all that fancy Latin stuff.

Maybe you should have been the one with your bum up in the air afterwards!

Hoping all your Christmas dreams come true... Oh and that your butt gets better!

Craig D said...

Well, just don't ask me to "kiss it and make it all better!"

Are you sure you didn't injure yourself from all that sweet bedroom action? C'mon, let's be honest - you know something could have happened during that sexy strip tease you've been perfecting.

By the way, it's bum where I come from. Or sometimes arse. We Canadians NEVER say butt (unless we're talking about a cigarette).

Hoping you guys get the Christmas present you're dreaming of...

Russ said...

I think Hilary is right, could be a sprain or overuse injury! Just remember it could be worse, the out-laws could be visiting. Crap, they are aren't they...

Martin said...

@CraigD
I've waited a long time for the chance to tell you to kiss my ass....
;-)

@Momo Fali
I admit it.
My name is Xbox4NappyRash and I've broken my arse.

@Veronica
Does that work? does it huh? Huh? I'll try it, you know I will...

@Tiff
Thanks Mrs, My backside appreciates your good wishes.
As for the Christmas wish...you and me both pet, you and me both.

@Hilary
Believe me, it's not easy to do yourself an injury in the missionary position, no matter how many hundreds of times you try...

I swear if this ever works out, I'm getting me some swing sets and whips and mirrors n'stuff.

@Russ
Can you imagine anything worse than your in-laws visiting you for a week? Nope?
Well I can... having to visit THEM for a week.

Shoot me now.

Russ said...

I feel your pain my friend! The wife and I are packing up the car to go visit hell, I mean her parents, in Athens, GA. We're only staying three days so I'll be out of my misery sooner, but I have a pint with you in solidarity!

Martin said...

I think I could suck it up for a weekend in Georgia, I love the southern part of the US.

I'm actually no longer used to 'pints', small wee tiddly glasses is the Dutch way.

Mmmmm Beer.

Russ said...

The southland is very nice indeed. Snow only lasts a day or two, max, and the slightest hint of foul weather sends everyone into a panic. we live about three hours by car from them, so we see them far too often. (You only thought your in laws were annoying before kids...)

Martin said...

We've got two bloody seas between us and it's probably 2 hours 10 minutes door-to-door!

They visit maybe 3 or 4 times a year as it is...I dread to think...

NH Yocal said...

Ouchies, seriously....I used to have lower back pain and every time I sat I would get this searing pain. Fortunately it went away but your post just brought back those miserable memories. I used to sit with a heating pad that almost literally gave me 1st degree burns. Hope it recovers quickly!

Veronica Foale said...

I don't think it would work...it might make ET feel better as she does it though...

All I can do is giggle... see never never ever offend the 'kiln god'

Martin said...

Thanks Melinda for your sympathy, unlike SOME I could mention, but won't(**coungh** Veronica, Kim **cough**)...
