My Afflation

One of these days I'll stop using chronic back pain and anxiety as excuses for not getting fit.  That day is not today though. My back is throbbing and will for the next day or so (because, you know, my menstrual cramps are more like contractions than regular abdominal cramping), and my hip just started screaming at me, and there's a headache brewing because I've been clenching my teeth again and not getting enough sleep, and come to think of it, my neck and shoulders are a little tight too.... So,  today is not the day I get motivated to exercise. Today is one of those days I try to get through without embarrassing myself or biting anyone's head off. Chronic pain (and stress) can suck it. Pass the ibuprofen. And chocolate. Especially if you know what's good for you. Pin It

Bent over, trying not to cry, putting on a brave face, can't miss another day of work...where's the damn Advil?!? Where's the oxy, some T3 would be nice ... Ahhhhh, heat. More Advil please! No, I am not suffering drug-induced withdrawal. It only feels that way. My back pain has been increasingly worse over the last two weeks. My chiro, who knows me so well, asked me to look at the calendar. Yup, I ovulated. That was the start.

193.4 Wedgies are great motivation . Especially when you get them on a daily basis. No, I am not re-living junior high. My underwear is giving me wedgies and I think my weight is redistributing itself. Honestly, I am so tired broke after buying new work clothes that fit that don't make me look like a stuffed sausage, and now this. But going commando in a skirt and heels is out of the question.

me -Zoloft ___________ tired, grumpy, moody, anxious, easily annoyed with other people's stupidity and dependency problems, more likely to think you have aforementioned problems if you whine about anything. Today is not a good day. Almost a week off my "happy pills" as Josh calls them because the pharmacy couldn't be bothered to retry billing the insurance. So this morning at o'dark thirty I called the insurance company, who were VERY helpful ... and then called the pharmacy and told them nicely that they need to push my Rx through because there was no reason why it shouldn't go through. They called back within 15 minutes to let me know that I could pick it up at my convenience. GRRR. Damn, I hate being moody. And I'm mid-cycle too.
