Back to misery of the back.

I guess two days in a row was too much to expect. The interesting thing is that yesterday I was able to feel the normal arthritic pain in my fingers and lower back - otherwise obliterated by the muscle lock which just happened to wake me up at 3:30 a.m. Sigh. So, after I took my Robax, I stayed up doodling on the computer until 5:00 when I slid back into bed. The next time I opened my eyes, it was sunny and 9:00.

It was just a weird day when nothing helped, though I did fall asleep while trying to massage the pain away. As I've said, my body mystifies me!

After reading that my fave Japanese restaurant is offering pick-up and delivery, I had to email baby Brian to tell him, even though he's not as adventurous when it comes to Japanese food, but we did enjoy sillybrating our birthdays there. Twice IIRC. I can imagine there are many Japanese families self-isolating but able to appreciate sublime meals on a regular basis. Ths restaurant claims to use a special film on sushi that keeps the seaweed crisp.

Well, that was my only excitement for the day. Watched TV including a silly Will&Grace, napped, watched more TV, and ate a little. There was an exciting finale to the College championship on Jeopardy! where the champ ran away both days by going all in on the Daily Doubles. Lucky.

Anyway, it's almost time for my pills, so I'm going to stay up for a while. Keeping my fingers crossed that my back will grace me with a night of … peace!
