I hurt my back this morning fastening my belt.
I knew it as soon as I did it. I gave a final "yank" to get it hooked, and felt an immediate "catch" and pain. I had to have the Rambling son put on one of my shoes and tie it, as for whatever reason, I could bend one way and not the other.
Now if you'll excuse me, the Rambling son is here to help me up.
You know, it's times like this I feel fortunate I'm not still single and dating college aged women, because they wouldn't understand.

I guess we better add shampoo to the list of Murca-hating Commie things that injure poor Al:

Pulled or strained muscle just below my left shoulder blade while shampooing.

Immense pain ever since. Where exactly do people manage to find painkillers on the street?

 
Hopefully he wasn't sitting on a tall chair while doing this.

Add "The Sun" to the list of threats

So my left arm has been unbearably itchy the last few days, as I put it on the window when I drive (I stopped rolling up my dress shirt, so that helps), and I get sunlight on it...even when it's cloudy, it gets enough. I have some sort of sun allergy, you can look up sun rash or sun allergy. I also have vitiligo, which is an area that does not tan. I only have it on my elbows, so it's not as noticeable as others in my family, who have it on their knuckles and on the arm.


Anyway, I looked it up to find out how to treat it, and I was surprised to see they recommended calamine lotion and cold compresses, and oral antihistamines. I did not take any Benadryl yet, as it makes you sleepy, but I'm amazed how nice a cool washcloth feels on it, although it leaves the sofa wet.
