Oh, My Aching Back
Even sitting on the couch hurts…and hockey starts tomorrow. I MUST sit! I sat in the massage chair several times today, but alas, the pain persists. I haven’t even wanted to sit at my computer. I want to lay on the floor and stretch, with Cricket snuffling at my face. It’s so cute. She crouches down on her front paws, with her butt sticking up in the air. It’s like when she playing with Phoenix. Adorable, but it doesn’t take away the pain. I think it’s time to schedule some x-rays to see what’s going on back there. Constant back pain and other issues make me think that my spine is not what it used to be.
We watched the new Geena Davis show, “Commander in Chief”, and we liked it a lot. It was interesting. So, that’s now three new shows. We swear we’re stopping. At least Weeds only has last night’s episode and one more, then we’re done with one thirty minute show for the season. Oh wait, I forgot, we picked up “The Soup” from E!, which has great reality show clips (Oh, Danny Bonaduce, what have drugs done to you?) and other fun stuff.

For some reason, the phrase “my spine is not what it used to be” made me giggle, and then I started thinking about all the things that it COULD be instead of a spine.. and now my sympathy has turned into hysterics at the idea of your spine no longer being a spine but, instead, all sorts of goofy things. Clearly it’s time to up the meds.

Oh, I’m sorry to hear about the back pain. I know that’s really hard to ignore. Tell us what the doc says.

Sorry you’re aching. Hang in there for a few more hours - hockey will help. I’m certain of it!

Dana, picture my spine as a fire breathing dragon with big pinchy claws.
Nancy & Helly, thanks. I’ll see if I can go to the doctor next week.
Helly, the hockey is already helping. So far, we’ve watch the first 20 minutes of the Thrashers/Panthers game, the first 20 of the Penguins/Devils game…and now we have the Leafs game paused, while we get snacks. I’m wearing my Leafs retro t-shirt. I’m sure that’ll make the difference for the team.
