back ... better? sort of

Ok, so getting out of bed didn't involve any screaming but it was still very difficult. I must have really done something to my back yesterday. It's better today but still.. i wouldn't want to have to go to work as a laborer today. Driving in to work was bad enough. At least it's quite a lot better than yesterday right after i did it and even in the evening when i got out of bed after sleeping to try and relax some. It seems that the pain sorta goes away if i stay in the same position for awhile (most positions) but then when it's time to move it's really stiff and painful for awhile. Walking doesn't really hurt much but carrying groceries in one hand while unlocking the door hurts. Wish I had thought to take advil before coming into the building at work today, now the thought of walking down the stairs to get the advil is worse than the pain of not having it.

Yesterday's food was completely uninteresting ... and there were no formal meals, just a snack here and there when i felt like i could eat. The back pain makes me a little sick if i move just right.

Over the day I had: Chef Boyardee Spaghetti & meatballs, Hot fries, 3 bananas, 2 black & white cookies and 3 chicken fingers leftover from the previous nights Chinese takeout.
