this song is AWESOME
Turn up the bass!
I found out about this song maybe 3 years ago.

Somebody talk to me, I am in pain and could use a distraction.

Does this derail your pain-train a bit questdriven ?

It has that "Lion lays with lamb" type quality , the otter's named Mozes and i just adore otters.

 

[evenifigoalone]

That is cute.

Gah, why can't I make this pain leave...at least it's not Sunday. I've missed church for the past couple of weeks because I spent Sunday mornings feeling like this.

 

[evenifigoalone]

Wishing for either:
An effective pain reliever, or
To be able to fall asleep and sleep this off

 

[evenifigoalone]

It hasn't helped in the past, but I'm willing to try anything right now...if only I could find the stupid ibuprofen, though.

 

[SpagLard]

i hope you fell asleep already..
do you mind me asking, is it a physical pain , or other ?

in case you are still awake, here is a picture of a baby hedgehog:

Physical, yeah.
I've heard it said that physical and mental pain are processed through the same place, though. The similarities I am discovering between a spell of physical pain and a spell of major depression (I used to have it) are interesting.

 

[evenifigoalone]

Well, I was able to fall asleep and I feel normal now =D
What is it about sleeping that changes things? Does my body relax more when I'm asleep? Or does it repair more?

 

[SpagLard]

Likely both, the body and mind do all sorts of maintenance during sleep.
good to hear you feel some relief.

 

[evenifigoalone]

Sleep always seems to be involved in getting relief from this particular ailment. Sleep and a heating pad.

 

[Angel]

Glad you are feeling better questdriven

Ok, got the car out. It smells bad - got oil burning off the curb side of the engine - yes, it's the dreaded and famous 3.2L V6 oil leak. The car sat so long, that oil seeped down in enough quantity that I had stench and slight smoke under the hood for the first ten miles or so. So, the next job is to yank the valve covers off and reseal them. I'll get to it, hopefully before the Spring Dragon. On the UP side, the near 60F temperatures, humidity around 4% and clear, blue skies made it quite a nice afternoon. I head to church in the morning in the comfort and style of the SE Roadster.
