Oh, god. Okay. For the next three hours or so, just imagine me whimpering and saying "ow" and "motherfucker" repeatedly.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
rice, rice baby! Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation.
And alot of cursing and hopping around, of course. Poor thing. Hope it feels better right away.
shrift! What are you doing? Cut it out, whatever it is!
I dropped my security badge and knelt down to pick it up while opening a door.
Opened the door into my knee. Hurt so bad that if I didn't have metaphorical balls of steel, I'd still be sitting in the elevator lobby, crying and moaning, "oooooooooooooh."
Somehow I managed to stand up and hobble inside the door, although I had to limp to the bathroom and sit down for about five minutes, because Jesus Christ.
Ow shrift! Can you walk on it now? You should totally ice it.
You know what's awesome?
Aleve.
I've had this back thing happenin' for the last week and a half or so. Sciatic nerve being ground to pulp, shooting pains down my left leg, blah blah blah.
Today I remembered we had a couple Aleve in the medicine stash. "What the hell," thought I. "I'll give anything a shot."
Dudes. DUDES. Pain drastically reduced and what pain there is is being taken care of by the "It's there, but I don't care" effect that I usually experience only with Vicodin or similar.
So, it's like Vicodin, but without the stoned.
I would happily do a commercial right now for this product.
"Aleve helped my back pain. I'm taking it right now And It's Fucking Great!!"
Narrator: "Aleve. It's Fucking Great. Pleasetakeresponsibly."
Can you ice it? Elevate it?
Hey, Allyson, I saw your book prominently displayed at Virgin Megastore today. Which ain't shabby several months after its publication, so maybe a surge in xmas/channukah sales.
That's awesome!
I think sales are still going pretty well, for a little book. Maybe I'll have a second printing. Maybe fluffy pink unicorns made of cotton candy will bring me a latte.
At work. No ice. Maybe can elevate, but really don't want to extend my knee.
Really should have stayed in bed.
Maybe fluffy pink unicorns made of cotton candy will bring me a latte.
Damn. Too bad Noah isn't old enough to drive and that we threw away his pink unicorn costume.
I am uninspired today.
I'm also in my office, with the door shut and the space heater on. Yes. Space heater. Every place I spend time this year has been the site of one of my purchased space heaters. how many have I purchased this year? 4. YES. Four.
