Yeah, I sometimes sleep with my head/neck craned into the corner - I would move the bed, but the bedroom is too tiny to put it anywhere else.

Probably insufficient abdominal strength to get up off his back.  :P

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.

Burying toxic and/or nuclear waste in random bits of Southern Italy and the Balkans is much cheaper than disposing of it properly.

I have those way too often myself. No amount of stretching or working out seems to help. It got so bad I went to see the doctor. He identified it as cluster headache, so I got some pills that helped a little. Then there was an inflammation in my shoulder that caused the headaches later. If I were to "listen to my body", I'd think the message is "You're fooked".

Syt

I spent my lunch break sitting outside in the spring sun. It helped a bit.

But yeah, pain killers only help so much, and there doesn't seem to be much to be done about tension or cluster headaches. :(

So, after 9 long months unemployed, I suddenly get two calls. Both are German multinationals:

Option a) Stay at my hometown with frequent, long stays around the world. During those long hours and stressful working conditions in a very challenging environment (automotive industry).
Option b) Move to a Spanish city not far, but far enough. Relaxed working conditions (in comparison).

:unsure:

Bizarrely, CBS neglected to mention his political affiliation.  So we know for sure he's not a Republican.

Or maybe they thought it was redundant having already said he was a Senator from California.
