Good morning back

Woke up this morning and damn.. apparently even though I look about 10 years younger than I am, my back knows my age, and has decided to jump ahead about 30 years where I'm old and I'm hobbling about.

The pain originates from a sprint I did in the mall a couple weeks ago. I was carrying X-man, who was struggling to get me to let him down, and I was unable to put him down for about 20 minutes. Lower back pain is the worst, it seems to creep into, and effect everything you do. Reach for that.. ow.. bend down to.. OW .. move my chair.. I said OW dammit. Pricing out spanky new mattresses etc... yeech... 500 for one that would definitely make life more pleasant.

I think my co-workers are beginning to believe I'm what I'd like to call a "Sicky" ... sick all the time, whining about pain, discomfort etc. I've had 2 colds/flus in the past 3 weeks, neither pleasant, and now this back pain shite. I don't like to be the Sicky one.

The back pain is timely, because I'm going on an 8 hr trip on Monday, all driving, and it's going to make it nice and unpleasant. I'll probably spend half my holiday at my parents laying on my back on the floor, or on painkillers.
