so, my back was still in agony this morning. so i woke up, took some robaxical, and then waiting till it took effect before i tried to get out of bed.

so, my back had been bugging me since saturday and it was now tuesday. plus the idea of taking a gram of aspirin at a shot was kind of bugging me, and i was worried that there was some underlying injury here besides a muscle strain. so i went to cambridge hospital's ER and explained things and they hooked me up with some soma and celebrex. (i cannot believe someone is selling a muscle relaxant named "soma"). they said it looks like just a muscle strain, not some other injury in conjuction or masked by it.

i'm kind of pissed that instead of spending a bright warm sunny day in my last week of unemployement motorcycling around new england, i'm sitting at home nursing a sore back.

how's that soma working out for you then? It's real high on the FDA's diverted prescriptions list, so it must be pretty good.

i just took some, so i'll let you know how it goes.

okay. it's in full effect. it's not a fabulous high or anything, but i wouldn't want to operate heavy machinery right now. the relaxation is good, tho.

soma is the drug of choice for a lot of pro wrestlers, actually. It's apparently quite the painkiller/muscle relaxant.
