2 Things

First, a bit about backs. I have slipped a disk in mine and have discovered just how painful a slipped disk (a.k.a. a hernia) is. It is amazing how simple things like sneezing, standing upright, getting out of bed, going to the bathroom, etc., suddenly become painful trails of strenght and paience. And when you have no job, no insurance, no money, and cn only go to free clinics, then it is especially tiresome and painful. However, I have been reassured that so long as I take it easy I should heal completely in the next few months or so and here are some neat drugs. At least it is some compensation, right?

Other than that, life is life. I have been listening to the immigration debates and really have issues with the people marching in protest and wearing the flags of their homelands, objecting to following the laws of the country they are now living and working in, but that is my humble opinion. There are others who have clearer statements I can probably pull up if anyone is actually interested.

Easter was a fun day with next to nothing accomplished beyond a wonderful meal and my nephew getting spoiled. It was a great day in my book.

I am tired of hurting and cramping and having to make sure all my wight is on my left side to prevent my right side from charlie horsing. And that is my whine. Now for some humor.

Hell hath no fury... Jennifer's wedding day was fast approaching. Nothing could dampen her excitement -- not even her parents' nasty divorce. Her mother had found the PERFECT dress to wear and would be the best dressed mother-of-the-bride ever! A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn that her father's new young wife had bought the exact same dress! Jennifer asked her to exchange it, but she refused. "Absolutely not. I look like a million bucks in this dress, and I'm wearing it," she replied. Jennifer told her mother who graciously said, "Never mind sweetheart. I'll get another dress. After all, it's your special day." A few days later, they went shopping and did find another gorgeous dress. When they stopped for lunch, Jennifer asked her mother, "Aren't you going to return the other dress? You really don't have another occasion where you could wear it." Her mother just smiled and replied, "Of course I do, dear. I'm wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding!" NOW I ASK YOU ALL; IS THERE A WOMAN OUT THERE, ANYWHERE, WHO WOULDN'T ENJOY THIS STORY?
