Ow...

So. We gathered at the weekend. It was much, much fun. I finally got to meet helenp (we nearly met *LAST* summer but events conspired against us) and also nicolap and got to renew many other friendships too. Unfortunately, I should have taken my Saturday night's sleep as a hint that today was going to be painful. See, on Saturday night, between chronic indigestion and even MORE chronic indigestion, my back generally refused to loosen up. Lying on my side was painful. Lying on my back was worse. But, when I woke up yesterday morning, I seemed to have dodged the bullet.

Ahah-ahah. Yeah. No.

Woke up this morning and while I was lying down, I was fine. The moment I started to move...Oh yes that would be the backspasm I should have expected.

Put it this way. Right now? It hurts to breath properly, never mind trying to actually move. At this point, I'm sort of wondering if I'm actually going to be able to GET to work this morning...

Bleh.

Improvement...

Well, on the upside, I can now (I think) breath without everything seizing up; so that's an improvement. On the downside, I'm now starting to feel more tired. So tired, in fact, that I just completely horlicksed up something for work and sent out the wrong batch of emails. Twice.

Oops.

Anyhow. Since I moaned last week about the whole bedtime drabble thing, it seems only fair for me to post my two eventual contributions to the hilarity *grin*

First was my initial effort - which I wasn't sure I was going to use. And then it got to be Friday morning and I hadn't managed anything else that fit the bill, so I printed it out before I left home, and ended up adding it into the envelope anyway. Well it seemed a waste not to, really!

Then, at 4:30pm, half an hour before I was due to leave work and head off for the wilds of Milton Kynes (and my subsequent getting-lost-and-taking-the-pretty-route!), I finally got some coherent inspiration.

And for reference, this ties to two of my previous bedtime drabbles:
Fear No Evil and Anschluss.

Spam Spam Spam Spam...

Well, I did say I'd give the lyric quiz answers when I got back...

I should probably do some work now...
