Woe is me

I know I am meant to be studyin’ and all but I thought I needed a spot of sympathy. As of yesterday morning, I woke up to a gloriously stiff neck and an extremely painful muscle pull. If I tell you it took me more than 40 minutes to scoot out from bed, cos every time I moved a cm I was awarded with a spasm that took my breath away, you can guess what a neat start to my day it was.

Nearly gave myself a hernia trying to pick up my laptop – then figured out basic biology. Neck muscle is connected to relevant hand; hence raising the said limb any higher than a couple of inches pulls the affected muscles, which results in a fresh spasm.

This morning, after a disturbed night’s sleep when the teeniest movement caused a spasm that woke me up , I found the muscles stiffer than before. So am watching the world go by from a seriously weird angle. Am convinced my HOD thought my reason for not turning up to the lab and presentation today is as bogus as it comes. Sigh.

Ooh thanks a bunch to all you sweethearts for leaving me messages of luck. Thanks a ton. Need every bit of it if I have to get through this lot! Muchas gracias, amigos!

  1. Must be a pregnant thing. I woke up with a stiff neck yesterday and its quite bad today. Hence did nt take Ashu to school today and shes in a phase now so she said “I want school”!! While I was aching to hear her say that for a long time, the timing is really something, dont ya think? The brats – out there to get us!!
    Anyway, good luck with everything. Take care.

  2. Sorry to hear about the painful morning…here’s a virtual massage for you and lots of good wishes coming your way….read that MIL impressing thing on the comments and just happy that everyone in your house liked it :)

  3. @Boo:
    Thanks :) At least P has gone off to school so I am left by myself to nurse my sore neck in peace. I am hoping desperately it disappears soon as it is wrecking havoc with my study schedule!

    @Nandita:
    Aww, thank you! Thank you muchly! That recipe of yours has become my Old Reliable now.

    @Kodi’s mom:
    Thank you :)
    Changed the template couple of days back in an effort to learn a thing or two about style sheets, which is what I am trying to do for my presentation next week. So all in the name of work and not play, as the MM hinted!
