Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Ain't nuthin as funny as a woman with root.

I *wish* I had some root and a husband.

If I only had a brain...

Oh, Dana, I'm sorry. Chronic illnesses SUCK SUCK SUCK.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ooof, Dana. What can they do for you? Meds?


Dana - Jan 19, 2006 11:31:51 am PST #1418 of 10002
I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Meds, stretching, exercise, paying a strange man to crack my back.

I expect it'll get much better than I feel right now, and I am honestly glad that there is a cause other than "yeah, backs are weird." But the fact that Vicodin doesn't make a dent in it is a little daunting.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, Dana, suckage.

2006's revolution of ita's wardrobe has begun. I don't think I've often (if ever) bought as much clothes as I did over lunch. Certainly not alone. Focused on things like not solid black (except for the sleeveless sweater), pattern (the brocade shoes), fabric (the chiffony blouse) or fixings (the metallic or pearlescent buttons) and atypical-for-me necklines (cowl sweater). There were a couple belts I just couldn't bring myself to plunk the cash down for that fit with my new expansion, and that made me sad.

Also decided that I'm redeeming my entire rewards for Coach, and I may very well blow it all on a teeny bag.

Take that, headache gods.

Well, I just got diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the lowest part of my spine

Argh! I mean, yay for a diagnosis, but still! Bad Thursday, no biscuit!

In other news, my boss just told me that I needed to do a power dump. Somehow I managed not to turn twelve until after he walked out of the office carrying a G4.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Welcome to the Tact Factory!

Would that be a Tactory?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I expect it'll get much better than I feel right now, and I am honestly glad that there is a cause other than "yeah, backs are weird."

Definitely. Especially a cause where there are ads on TV for the medicine. You know what I mean -- it's not like they were like, "It's called XYZ, but yeah, just wait it out."

But the fact that Vicodin doesn't make a dent in it is a little daunting.

Maybe that was just the wrong type of drug for you?

Well, I just got diagnosed with osteoarthritis in the lowest part of my spine,

Ouch. Good luck. I hope it's treatable. I know nothing about it, except that it means Arthritis of the back, I think. Either way? Not helping.

I wish you relief and walking, soonest.

Oh, Dana, that sucks. I'm sorry to hear it.

In other news, my boss just told me that I needed to do a power dump. Somehow I managed not to turn twelve until after he walked out of the office carrying a G4.

Ahahahahaha!!!
