Yeah, I'm still here...
Thu Jan 13 2005

Still hurting. Going to doctor tomorrow. Again.

I don't want any more pills. I don't want to treat the symptoms. I want to find out what's the problem and treat that.

Send me to an orthopedist. Or a neurologist. Or someone who can figure out why I hurt, why can I sit in one chair and be comfortable, and why I get excrutiating pain in another chair. Why can't I sleep on my side anymore?

This is going on three weeks, and I'm tired of it!

**********
And in other news:

The rains have stopped for awhile. At least for the rest of the week. But morning fog is pretty heavy. Glad I don't have to do the commute thing any more.

Morning was gloomy but by noon it was turning out to be a pretty nice day. I won't complain that it was a bit chilly. Not after reading about the temperatures in Mid-America.

I'm sorry about the people who lost their homes in the landslide in SoCal. But they've known for years and years and years that the mountainsides and cliffs along the coast are unstable. Yet, they still build houses there. So it rains. So the mountain slips. So homes go down with the mountain. And people in Sacramento are petitioning to build houses on the bluffs along the American River.

GET A CLUE, PEOPLE!!!

Ow! just got a pain running from my shoulder down my arm. Time to go.

Shalom

    It is the same with the beaches here. They know the sand is going to erode and with high tide or hurricanes they could lose their houses. I never understood why people built on the edge of the water, the mountain or where every year the fires take your house. I just don't get it. I sure hope you feel better. Sounds like a pinched nerve. I had that because of a ruptured disc, it took them 6 weeks to figure out to give me an MRI. That is why they call them practicing physicians, lol. UGGH!
