getting older sucks

Found something my D.O. couldn't fix immediately with O.M.M.

Or I guess I fucked up the muscle so badly that it is going to take a while to fix.

Pretty sure it is the right piriform that is fucked, pinching that stupid old person nerve. Damnit.

Pedaling is okay, bumps while pedaling are like a knife in the top of my butt/base of my spine.

The lack of sleep combo with the extra stresses and the long walks at the conference probably were all contributors. Coincidences? nah all contributing factors. But given how fucked my right hip is right now, maybe the smackdown disaster was really not so bad, no pain and better rest, perhaps there's something in the legs. Not likely enough but something. Trying to be comfortable and restful and not make the pain worse is pretty fucking impossible though.

Gotta keep plugging on, pushing forward, making shit happen. Not sure bed rest is even a good idea, not sure doing planks and weakening/stressing the supporting muscles is either, but will stretching be enough?

Day two of cutting back on coffee. At doc office at 3:45 my BP was 100/60 so, for some dude about to turn 47, that's not terrible, even if i'm get paralyzed by pain by surprise just moving normally right now.

I suppose I could pop some pills, dull the pain...  but then I wouldn't be aware of making it worse or tracking when it gets better.

Was going to ride bikes for a good part of the day tomorrow, but right now, nope. need this shit to sort itself out. Somehow. Fuck.

At least I didn't forget my wallet at home and while I normally bring lunch, the college bound oldest kid has been cooking and I love having someone else cook for a change, downside is they aren't quite making enough to have left over portions to take for lunch. Anyone up for lunch on Thayer today?

Didn't think so, I'll head out alone like normal. Not complaining, it is just me, now to decide, way too many choices for food.
