Vodka does not ease back pain. But it does get your mind off it.
Fuzzy Zoeller
Just to update: back pain has devolved into the kind of pain you would get if you lifted something the wrong way. Couple of Advil do take care of it.

Karen returns home today. I need to assume "normal" guidance.
If you are always trying to be normal you will never know how amazing you can be.

A "two fer: today. A bunch of my friends went to McSorley's Old Ale House in NYC last night. I did a one minute face time because it was too noisy in the bar (go figure). I just waved a libation at them and they returned the favor.
The only cure for a real hangover is death.

In recognition of my returning to the gym today, I thought I would cite The Great Lebowski:
Eating ice cream and not exercising is great. The downside is your health isn't so good.

Since I'll be at a car show today (I wasn't invited either), thought a sports car quote would be appropriate.
She wanted an Italian sports car - with the sport still in it. Milton Berle
(The car is American, but the "sport" in it (me) is Italian.)
