misery

my bed took revenge on me for my rant yesterday about detesting where i currently live. i woke up this morning with a spring poking me in the back and things got worse when i tried to get up. i went straight for the advil bottle. my back is completely messed up. i can't bend over, i cant bend my head down, and i can't sit up for more than half an hour. and when i do sit up, i have to have perfect posture, or it just doesn't work. i basically have to keep my back straight at all times or be in pain. try getting dressed keeping your back perfectly straight. just try it.

this couldn't be worse timing, seeing as i leave for a week friday morning, haven't seen my advisor yet, and was supposed to be getting mad amounts of work done today. how the fuck am i supposed to get computer simulations done when the only comfortable position that doesn't cause pain (other than infrequent half-hour spurts of sitting up) is flat on my back?!

anyway. this half hour of sitting up is just about over. i wonder if swimming will help or just make things worse...
