Not a lot of people know this, but... (3/23)

**Woody** · 03-23-2009

While I was playing the other day, Layo on his alt tossed out the comment in the first text bubble of the comic. Now, I assume he was talking about the Indu'le Walrus-men ghosts. But, I didn't ask at the time.

Now, I'm not implying here that I would respect anyone that gave me a back rub.
It would have to be a "damn fine" back rub.

Okay, associated story time...
I messed up my back doing artwork. Yeah, you read that crap right. I somehow tweaked a muscle beside my shoulder blade while I was working on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles thank you wallpaper for the Artist For Sale contributors. It's been messing with me ever since. **grumbles**

How exactly the hell do you tweak your back coloring digital artwork?
Don't bother answering that.

It doesn't take much to tweak a back. I can lift a 50 pound bag of spuds no problem, 30 secs later pick up a bottle of wine and whamo! Im in pain for 2 weeks. Good luck with the back Woody=)

TMNT related, I would just say it as a martial "ARTIST" injury.

I'm thinking.... small creature in one arm, stylus in the other, and something goes OW.

So sorry to hear you are in pain Woody. Though maybe you should consider upgrading from the original University of Chicago stone tablet and monolithic pen for coloring.

I have to admit the first thing I thought of when I read the comic was Pulp Fiction and the foot massage conversation. Kind of put a different spin on it.

Hope you feel better soon.

And now I can't think of anything other than Samuel L Jackson and John Travolta as Blood Elves in suits. :P

If he's a ghost wouldn't his hands pass straight through you? It'd be less a back rub and more of a organ massage. And that's a bit too "damn fine" for me!

My dad spent a week flat on his back in agony after sneezing while putting on his shoe.

Dude totally understand throwing your back or tweaking a muscle when not doing anything hard core. I turned my neck the other day and couldn't move it for a week. LOL It's so weird how things work in the body.

Hope you get better!

Admit it, you were doing the TMNT poses when you hurt your back. It's okay, we understand
