Well I did it again. I threw my back out. This happens about 5 times a year. This time I was at work for about 10 minutes. It was 8:30 am and I had just finnished cleaning snow off of several cars in the display area. (West Burbs of Chicago got hit w/ about 5 in last night). I met an appointment I had at 9am sharp. I step outside to show him a car and I slipped on Ice. I caught my self in a shuffle step. In half a second I felt the pain shoot through my spine. I probally should have just fallen that might have been better. I went inside and gave that deal to a co worker and went home. I could not walk , get in my car or sneeze with out lots of pain. When I was young 18/19 I got really drunk in College and fell down 2 flights of stairs. I fell down one then stood up and promply fell down the second. Now many years later I still have to deal with that. (partialy crushed disk) Arrrrrg. Right now I smell like an old man - ben gay patches on my back. You forget how much you use your back in every movement , walking breathing, climbing stairs, sleeping in a comfortable position. Today I've taken 2 hot showers and 2 naps. --- I feel better now thats it 15 hours later and I know I'll be sore tomorrow/monday.
