Title: Vision Quest to the North pt 2
Post by: Razgovory on May 14, 2012, 02:21:18 PM
Tomorrow I'm going up to Wisconsin for a few days, so you'll have to find someone else to bitch about for a while.

Can't we bitch about you while you are gone?

If you're a beer drinker, check out the Leinenkugel beer.  I remember that being rather good.

Whereabouts in Wisconsin you going?

Pretty sure you can get Leinie in Missourah.  They make some decent, some not so decent varieties.  I always liked their Red.

I haven't been in the midwest since '99, so work with me.

Just clear it through me first next time you'll be okay ;)

Sprecher.  New Glarus.  These are the beers from Wisconsin.  Leinie is perfectly adequate, but nothing special.

Made it back.  Spent the entire time in agony.  I have something wrong with my back.  Unsure what, started the day before I left and got worse.  Figured it would get better if I had a good night sleep.  When I woke up, couldn't even sit up.  Went to the hospital and they figured I had some sort of back strain.  They were impressed how much painkiller it took before I even felt it.  I have a high tolerance to chemicals.  Spent the last few days in a Vicoden haze.  Did see my niece.  I understand why Malthus and BB are so proud of their kids.  Babies are wonderful.

Using the MD license I obtained in a Cracker Jack box, I'd say you might have sciatica.

Why not take a Vision Quest to Peter North?  That way you'd at least get to visit Malibu.

Actually I asked about ruptered disks and the like.  The doc at the emergency room thought it was just a torn muscle.  Hurts like a bitch though.  I have been walking with a cane for the last few days.  I have a follow up on Monday.

And no Cal, I'm not going to see Peter North.  What is with you and Peter North anyway?  Actually I saw a chick at the HuHot Grill in Madison I think worked in Porn.  Dead ringer for the chick.

A torn muscle?  Have you been tossing the caber?

Be glad it ain't a disc.  Had one go out a few years back and it was not pleasant for the next 6 months.

No, nothing.  I have no idea how could have happened.  The pain started Monday and gradually got worse.  When I woke up Tuesday I was all but paralyzed.  One of the problems is that it causes all the muscles in my lower body to tighten so I can barely move.  I have to lay back down and relax all the muscles before I can try again.  It also has spasms of pain, where I'm just lying down on my bed and and it feels like the muscles all tighten into a little ball for a second.  Causes me to shout out.  When asked by the doc I said ti was an "8 out of 10" in terms of pain.  Not painful enough to cause me to cry or so painful I can't breath, but painful enough to scream out involuntarily.  It really, really really, fucking hurts.

On the brighter side, my niece is pure wonderful.  I wuv her so much. :wub:  Unfortunately I was bed ridden on the day they all went to the zoo. :(
