Bad Day

9:00 a.m.
DK: I tweaked my back this morning, just turned wrong or something, and now it hurts. It feels like I have a tight muscle that just won't relax. It sucks having to just sit around all day, because it feels better when I'm standing. I'm trying to find a comfortable position in my chair, so I keep moving just a millimeter to the right until I can find the spot.

Haven't found it yet. Will keep you posted.

10:00 a.m.
DK: Okay, the back still hurts, but now my armpit hurts as well. When I reached up to pause my CD, I ripped out an armpit hair. This goes along with the broken blood vessel in my hand that I got when I slammed my hand into my desk this morning, trying to unplug my clock.

This might be the day the bus gets me.

Will keep you posted...unless the bus gets me, and then I won't.

10:30 a.m.
AS: I am so sorry to hear you are in pain. Did you take anything for your back? Maybe some Ibuprofen will alleviate the muscle pain.

Whatever you do, stay away from the light. This is not the day the bus will get you. Put that out of your mind.

11:00 a.m.
DK: Back and hand still hurt. Head is starting to throb again. My armpit is down to a dull ache. Feet stink. Left butt cheek itches a little. A stupid gnat keeps attacking me every time I try to work. Prognosis is not good. I tried to take your advice and stay away from the light. However, when I flipped off the switch in my area, I was greeted with 17 complaining, angry voices. Had to flip switch back on. Can't help the light. I am currently hiding under my desk, because that is the darkest part I can find. Having to curl in tight ball. Losing feeling in my right leg.

Will keep you posted...unless paralysis spreads to fingers.
