Oh, me aching back....
Wednesday, November 5th, 2003 06:11 pmSo much for Ibuprofen.
Despite dosing myself up at a higher level than recommended (there's always a healthy safety margin on these recommended doses), the ache in the small of my back continues to gnaw at my consciousness.
I should dearly love to be able to replace my backbone with something less painful. An injection of mercury, perhaps.
This would have the benefit of being strong and flexible, if a little heavy.
Of course there would be major drawbacks. During the heat of Summer I would most likely be eight feet tall, but around mid-Winter I would live in fear of cats as I skulked around in the shadows like something from Land of the Giants.
Still, it would be an interesting party piece.
Unusual, too.
