As I mentioned yesterday, wifey and I had a couples massage. It was great. It's only the second time in my life I've had a professional massage, and it was most excellent. I think part of the reason I had gone so long without was because I had a deep tissue massage the first time around, and I left more sore than when I went in, and I was sore for a couple of days.
This time around, I kept the lesson from my first massage and went for a medium pressure massage. I had fully expected I'd have muscle tightness, even though I do yoga, but I had no idea how much tension my muscles were carrying. My neck and shoulders in particular still feel crazy relaxed compared to before the massage. I asked the massage dude what he noticed as a therapist, and he essentially said that I was tense all over.
You may notice that I had a guy do the massage. I know that some people are weird about having a male masseur, but not me.
After I got home, I cracked a few beers and relaxed even further, and later on, I made fajitas for dinner. The fajitas had beef, chicken and shrimp. Yummy!
Overall, it was sooo relaxing! I think I'm gonna need to take the wife out and do this again sometime.

That is awesome!!!! A massage is my fav way to properly relax.. I like the extreme opposites tho- foot and back/shoulders only. I don't like the full body at all. It's really hard to find a good masseuse that you can be comfortable with- when you find one- keep them on Speed-Dial!!! How did your honey like hers?
