There is a bee who keeps flying in our window. We've tried numerous times to shoo him back out again, but he keeps coming back. He's now hovering around our ceiling.

You should put some honey on your lips and see if she'll come down.

Two Lumps for today.

CAN'T. BREATHE.

LAUGHING. TOO. HARD.

AKATUWU! AKATUWU!

Steph is trying to kill me through laughter-suffocation.

I am starting to despair under all this constant back pain. I'm at the point where I just want to cry all the time and then maybe kill myself so no one else needs to hear my pitiful whining, and the noises I make when I try yo to move.

My body must know that I've hated it all along, even though I was trying to be good to it these past few years.

here's a hint for the whole world: if I ask you three times for EVERYTHING your tip gets shitty

today was be-waited-on Friday. HAH. So much for a treat. grrrrr

Oh, honey. You sound like I did when my back was injured. It was unfuckingbearable.

What have you done so far in the way of treatment? Chiropractor? Physical therapy? Drugs drugs and more drugs? I can try to throw out a few ideas if I know what you've already done.

I tell you, the next time I eat spaghetti, I'm going to have to do the AKATUWU thing.

Back spazzed out on Monday, I went to the doctor on Tuesday. He recommended heat and gentle stretching (I got a blurry photocopy of instructions), and prescribed 800mg ibuprofin and flexeril, which I take before bed. I've been sleeping ok THANK JEBUS because I do not even wish to contemplate the mess I'd be if sleep-dep was involved.

I've been a little lax on the heat, I wish we had a heating pad. I used those ThermaCare Tues. night/Wed. day and had a bath last night.

But sitting at my desk (or pretty much sitting up anywhere) is a killer, especially when I get up - my right leg is really painfully affected more than my left leg.

The dr. said to give it a week and then go back if no/little improvement.

I think it's better than Monday/Tuesday, but hasn't gotten any better since Wedensday.

{{{nora}}} Also, happy (belated) anniversary!

I smell like LUSH Snowcake soap. YUM! I wish they made a lotion that smelled like it so I could be overpowery with my Snowcake smell!

Now I want to send Gloomcookie a letter and live on eternally in her accordion file.

Bring it! (And make it pink with a Hello Kitty head on it!)
