Pain.
Ugh. Soooo I dont' even know where to begin.

On Wednesday, my boss told me I was getting traded to another team, which was really upsetting because I really liked my coworkers, my boss, and my office. I mean really...you've probably noticed I haven't been complaining at all, which for me is huge. Anyhow, I was really upset and stressed about it. Ugh.

Whatever. It doesn't matter. It has to happen, regardless of the reason, whatever that might be.

Thursday, Friday....I've been kind of in a slump about the whole thing.

On Friday, my coworkers baked FOUR cakes for me. Talk about love! Of course, it was super caloric love, but it was so sweet and nice, and it was such an awesome gesture, I obviously had some of each, and it was all delicious.

On Friday we went out, and I drank WAY too much, so on Saturday I felt completely poisoned.

My neck was starting to act up on Friday too, and it ramped up on Saturday, and now it just KILLS. Ugh. It hurts so much. I have patches on my neck, and I'm popping ibuprofin and flexeril like it's my job, and nothing is touching it...

And given the results of my recent MRI, this isn't surprising. Apparently there's some pretty intense degeneration going on in my neck, and they referred me to an orthopedist. Of course, I heard all this from a voice mail...

"There appears to be serious degeneration in your neck. This explains your pain."

This explains my pain? Really? FUCK YOU! I've been going in there for years, complaining about my neck, telling them how nothing touches the pain, and what do they say?

To use a heating pad. To try a hot shower. Like these things hadn't occured to me? Like I'd be wasting my time and theirs and an $18 copay if my pain was minor enough to be relieved by a hot shower?

Like either of these things is going to fix goddamn degeneration of my spine?

Ugh.

Annoying..

I just wonder what they're going to recommend for me? *sigh* Also, I'd like something more specific than what I got in that message.

Annnyways... my neck hurts, and for that reason today has been a pretty wasted day..And I've been totally unable to exercise obviously. Diet has been decent though. Of course that's temporary though because tonight we're going to my parents' house.

Today:
Bfast: 1 egg, turkey bacon, diet toast
Lunch: nonfat organic plain Greek yogurt, blueberries, ground flax seeds
Dinner: ?????

So yeah, that's pretty much it.

I'm puttering around the house like an eighty year old because of my neck, and it is tres lame. On the upside though, my skin looks incredible.

I have a big week ahead of me, and I really just need to take it easy and try to get my neck right by Tuesday, or I am going to be in a world of pain.
