This site and only one other site actually do the whole liking people's posts thing, although here it actually counts for something. I kind of like it although it could only work on message boards that are full of mostly civil people-which means RT is out :P

It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lennon's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds
To my mother, my dog, and clowns
The Scottish accent gives it just a bit more punch.Quoting megladon8 (view post)

Don't mourn the dead,
Celebrate the life they gave"

I keep thinking that my back is feeling better, but that is only because I am lying completely still. The second I move, it's like, Oh, right. Pain.
...and the milk's in me.
I thought it in the voice of drunk Billy Connolly, and it was hilarious.
This is a really cool looking computer interface.

Mara, in case you haven't done this yet, alternate between hot and cold on your back. When my back goes out, I use an electric heating pad and a bag of frozen peas.
Yes, this is the best. I have a heating pad and an ice pack, and after six hours or so yesterday my back had calmed down enough that I could sleep. It's feeling better today and I am keeping up the regimen at work.
Also, ibuprofen.
...and the milk's in me.
Try naproxen if the ibuprofen doesn't cut it.
“What we are dealing with here is a perfect engine, er... an eating machine. It's really a miracle of evolution. All this machine does is swim and eat and make little sharks and that's all.”
YES. Naproxen works soooo much better than ibuprofen for me.
I once wrenched my back so badly that I had to have my husband help me off the floor. No idea what caused it. I have a prescription for Soma, which came in very handy.
Hope your back feels better.
I had Thai food for dinner and now I am walking better and even made it up the stairs okay. My roommate says it is because Thai food is magical.
The catch is that it might Thai your stomach in knots.

I had back surgery in May, and my back still gets locked up and/or shoots pain through my lower body all the time. It's no fun at all, especially trying to play with my little girls or do exercise related activities, which are kind of a job requirement. Hope you feel better.
Back is feeling better. Thanks, guys. I'm walking pretty well and only feel stiff when I get up from sitting/lying and when I try to bend over. This morning I refilled my cat's food but then was having trouble getting the bowl from my hand to the floor (ended up kneeling down.) Meanwhile, my cat was losing her tiny kitty mind. It was kind of hilarious.

This. Again. Frustrating. Was supposed to be here an hour ago.
Give him the Syd Barrett treatment. Find a replacement and don't bother to let him know.
People like that drive me nuts. It's too easy to send a text to excuse being such an inconsiderate a-hole.
...which would potentially place his replacement in a bit of an awkward spot should El Flake-o actually show up some time to find the new guy taking his place.
I would just recommend a text, short, to the point, professional: "you're out. you've been replaced. we found a new guy we can rely on. if it makes you feel any better, i just saved a lot on car insurance."
Losing is like fertilizer: it stinks for a while, then you get used to it. (Tony, Hibbing)
Which is exactly what happened when Syd showed up for some post-Syd recording sessions.
Woke up in the middle of the night to something tickling my arm, sat up, saw a tiny shadow LEAP from my bed and scurry into a hole. A mouse was climbing on my bed while I slept. The solution my groggy, sleep-deprived brain came up with was to cover the hole with one of the glue traps I have hidden around my apartment. I'm sure I'll come to regret that decision when I try to remove it.
This new knowledge suggests that what I had disregarded as a hypnagogic hallucination was actually reality, and that wasn't the first time a mouse was climbing on me.
If your bed doesn't touch the wall, put the glue traps under each leg. That way they can't climb up.
...and the milk's in me.
I don't have a frame at this time.
Yiiikes. I would have trouble sleeping in those conditions. (Fear of being crawled upon.)
Mice don't like the smell of peppermint-- maybe you could spray some over your bed to keep them away.
...and the milk's in me.
Really! I just purchased some peppermint-scented handsoap.
I'll be that guy who keeps making Kanye posts, because he's having a moment.
