Today my back feels good. Not 100%, but good. I feel confident that in one more week I will be fully recovered from my recent back trauma.

My recent experiment with extreme pain and immobilization has left me feeling very grateful for my, until now, pretty unblemished physical record. Upon examination, I have come to the conclusion that this is my first really serious injury. Being a very careful, clean, and rather wussy child, my early years were pretty uneventful in the realm of physical malady. No broken bones, or bloody noses for me. I do remember a few scraped knees, and once being run over by a bicycle on my way home from school; but by no means was I ever debilitated. As an adult, I have never had a physical injury that has kept me out of work for a full week. I have come to the very non-scientific conclusion that one incident in 28 years is pretty darn good….statistically speaking.
