Dragging Ass

I know I haven’t done much lately and I wanted to drop a line and let you know why:

If you read some of the other blogs, you know that I have a bad neck. The thing with a bad neck is that it really affects a lot more than just your neck; it hurts my shoulder, my hands, sometimes makes my chest hurt when I breathe, etc. You may also know that the doctors I have have been shipping me around to this specialist and that one, ordering test after test to “confirm” my injury, even though it has been “confirmed” for going on four years now. What they won’t do is give me proper pain medication, and I am quite sure it is due to my appearance (what with the long hairs and all), so I finally got the nerve up to get mouthy with them the other day and they simply hung up on me. I spent the rest of the day calling lawyers to see what my options are.

So, aside from being in general pain and just not feeling well, I was also in a very bad mood Thursday and Friday and simply could not focus on anything. Also, when this flares up, I can’t stand to sit here for more than 10-15 minutes at a time. I have CTS (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome) too, which bothers me every now and then and adds to the general pain and discomfort when it does (like last week).

The other thing is that I am actively working on the site (S.A.F.E., in particular) and my time has been divided between that and blogging. Still, the book I checked out is due back Monday, so I’m going to try and get as much out of that as I can before I have to return it, which means there may be a lot of entries this weekend (but I can’t promise anything).
