"Back" into Writing
Yes, I keep saying I have to get back into writing regularly, and I have been doing a poor job of it. I really, really hate September. I generally have a lot of depression in September and it slows me down a lot from doing many things. Writing just happens to be on of the things that I am not doing. I have been spending a lot of time sleeping. I also started playing a different computer game and that has my mind off on other things. My sleep has been all messed up due a few different things, the depression being the main one.
The other thing that has been effecting me a great deal is my back. I decided that I wanted to carry the air conditioner from the old apartment down to the basement for storage over the winter. It was part of the things I still needed to do around the apartment since moving in. Well, when I lifted up from the floor, I felt something do this sort of slide and pop in my back. It did not immediately hurt, but as I made my way across the floor and then down the steps to the basement, it got worse and worse.
I managed to get the air conditioner properly placed on the its' shelf, and then tried to sit down and the pain really started. I made an appointment that evening with my doctors' office and had one of my friends come over to pick me up and take me there. It seems I have managed to get a sacroiliac joint injury. This is basically, the place where the hip connects to the spine and has very minimal motion. I caused it to move more then it really should move and have been paying for it since then.
Between depression and pain and pain meds, I have spent a lot of time asleep and a lot of time just trying to distract myself from the fact that I am in a great deal of pain. It is definitely better then it was on Friday, but it is still hurting a great deal. So, that is my excuse for not writing recently. September Sucks.
