My mom included this photo in a larger photo frame she sent me for Christmas. I totally love it. There are photos of me, my brother, and sister that I never new existed. Like this photo...I know it was taken in '79 or so, but I don't remember seeing it anywhere in my mom's house. I hope that she sends me more photos of my siblings and I when we were kids. I love old timey photos.
But can we touch on something here for a second? Check out those pants! And what's up with the Jordache shirt? I wish my feet weren't cut off so I can see what kind of monster shoes my mom put on my feets.
Aahh....good times!
In unrelated news - sort of - my back is still killing me. Since my doctor did not call me back today, I've elected to take more than the recomended dosage of Vicodin, just so I can sleep through the night. If the one-and-a-half pills do not make a difference, I'm not going to take any more. And I'm going to see if I can get my money back at the pharmacy. I don't even know if that's legal, but if I was prescribed 60 pills and I only took three, I should recoup SOME money....right?
Top Chef in 10 minutes, y'awl!

Painkillers?
I went to my doctor yesterday because my back is just not geting any better. She gave me good news - that I didn't do any serious damage (although it feels like I broke my back) but that it will be/might be a long healing process. I left her office with a script for both Tylenol w. Codeine and Vicadin. Good, right?
I took the codeine and promptly fell asleep. I woke up two hours later feeling groggy, but not in any less pain. Six hours after that I took a vicadin, praying that it would take the pain away and let me sleep. Nope. I was up at least 5 times in the night with screaming pain in my back and leg. As a result, I didn't get up and start the day until noon.
I decided to try again. Another codeine made me drowsy. Four hours later I took a vicadin. NOTHING! No relief from this pain at all. It's almost time for another vicadin and I don't know if I can even be bothered. There's no use killing my liver if I'm not getting anything out of it, right?
I don't get why people say that vicadin is awesome. Hell, I can't even see how people can get addicted to it. It's done absolutley nothing for me and I'm pissed. So I'll have to call my doctor tomorrow to see if she can either 1) up the dose or 2) prescribe something different.
Because I cannot handle another day of this terrible pain.
