Loser Alert: Making the Sucktacular Decision |
So describing the latest workout is irrelevant in the face of the momentously stupid decision I made to try to lift more weight than I felt confident with. Each set felt a little harder, and I ignored a rising anxiety about the tension in my wiggly low back.
I think you can see where this is going.
So when the electric pain shot up & down my spine and down my right leg, I shouted, F***! F***! F***! adding serious social embarrassment to everything else I experienced. Note: for once I dropped the weights correctly: I just let go. I hope Paul noticed.
Anyway, those shouts break down as follows:
1st: I am in a F***load of pain
2nd: I am so F****ING stupid
3rd: I F***ING just blew a weekend of serious dancing, including the Carnival of Stars for which we'd been rehearsing for several months and 3 bookings ($$$.) And probably no dancing for the next week or so.
Poor Paul iced my back for like 20 minutes which helped numb my pretty stunned back muscles; but it didn't stop the lightening striking down my back & leg. I then became a deadly menace to society by driving home, which involved a lot of lip-biting.
I spent the day lying and crying on the floor, packed with ice and sucking back any pain drugs I could find regardless of interaction, ulcer or expiration date (and this morning I am still crawling through the cabinets seeking drugs like a web bot scuttering the internet.
