My Aching Back

I found out yesterday that I had broken a vertabrae in my back. This is three weeks after I tried to help move a refrigerator. I am not upset by this, but I am surprised. Surprised that it took three weeks for someone to figure out that it was broken.

I have been in some pain, and I kept believing it had been a muscle strain or something like that. Now I will have to wear a brace for two to three months, and all the things I wanted to do will be done either with help, or by someone else entirely. On the bright side, it gives me more time to write.

Don't forget that I am hosting the 'Happy Story' tonight on Daily Kos, around 8PM EST.
