Can't keep headache at bay...
...it came back last night about 1:30am my
time. Woke up this morning without too much pain but feeling all brain
damaged....had the shakes and seemed to be moving in slow motion. Called the
chiropractor and massage therapist's office....I can get in to see the
chiropractor tomorrow, but the massage lady is out until Tuesday. Went to water
aerobics...everyone could tell that I was feeling out of it. My head kept
spasming periodically, but I stayed with the class anyway. I was sooo sore all
over from spending all day yesterday in bed that I knew I really needed the
exercise.
I guess before work
I'll try the tennis ball thing....I have to get that trigger point resolved
somehow. I will be bringing Skelaxin, menthol patches and a rice sock to work
with me just in case. I guess this is a classic example of how chronic
myofascial pain and fibromyalgia feed off one
another.

A
Poem For Computer Users Over
50
A computer was
something on TV,
From a science
fiction show of note,
A window was
something you hated to clean,
And ram was the
father of a
goat.
Meg was the name
of my girlfriend,
And gig was a
job for the night,
Now they all
mean different things,
And that really
mega bytes.
An application
was for employment,
A program was a
TV show,
A
cursor used profanity,
A keyboard was a
piano.
Memory was
something that you lost with age,
A CD was a bank
account,
And if
you had a 3-inch floppy,
You hoped nobody
found out.
Compress was
something you did to the garbage,
Not something
you did to a file,
And if you
unzipped anything in public,
You'd be in jail
for a while.
Log on was
adding wood to the fire,
Hard drive was a
long trip on the road,
A mouse pad was
where a mouse lived,
And a backup
happened to your
commode.
Cut you did with
a pocket knife,
Paste you did
with glue,
A web
was a spider's home,
And a virus was
the flu.
I guess I'll
stick to my pad and paper,
And the memory
in my head.
I
hear nobody's been killed in a computer crash,
But when it
happens they wish they were dead.
