Little Update on My Very Painful Situation  

10 comments

A few days ago I pulled a muscle in my back really badly. Up until now, even drinking water was an existential question. How badly did I need the water? Would I be willing to risk intense pain to get the water? Was I content to be without pain or did I need to have the water? It had all the makings of a Camus novel or a Pinter play but it also meant that I couldn't type much. After a lot of bengay, holding off going to the bathroom, and hot patches on my back, I am finally better and will be able to answer your comments and post the things you requested soon. And by soon I mean tomorrow. Right now I'm a little befuddled by the bengay fumes.

    Aw Anu, I hope you have a speedy recovery. I know it sucks having an injory when you have so many other things that you would rather be doing (like drinking water lol). Love how you're staying positive, and continue to do so. I agree with mukho...we aren't going anywhere :o)
