The back seems to be an important part of the body. I know mine is, because now that it is in pain I can't do very much more than lie here and type this entry. That's not exactly true, I can get up and walk around a bit, but not without more pain and annoyance, and a feeling of helplessness. Of course I can watch TV (thankfully we just got one of those converter boxes and an antenna not too long ago), and luckily the remote controls are right by my couch.

But you start to get a little woozy after a little while of lying in bed doing basically nothing with your body, and your head starts to feel funny. Luckily, the pain is much better today; the tequila last night really helped, much better than the naproxin I took earlier in the day. And it was well worth any headaches or wooziness I feel in my head now and then.

May this pain and paralysis soon recede, may I again be normal and walking without pain. I just hope I can get fully over this and not have any more "problems" with my back, the fact of which is pretty stupid and ridiculous if you ask me. What, pulling up Bittersweet roots should screw me up so badly?
