So I hurt my back over the weekend (shocker). I think it was from vacuuming the stairs, but who knows. To add insult to injury when I got to the top of the stairs, I realized that the belt had broken on the vacuum and it was probably only sucking up 1/4 of what I thought it was.
Next big buy -- Dyson!
I worked from home today so I could nurse my back and get some sympathy from my pets. The Chairman especially knows when something like this is going on and will frequently sit and stare at me waiting for the bottom to drop out.
He has a sense for these things, I think it's his long evil whiskers.

I started feeling better about 3:30 and decided I would go to the gym to maybe have a swim and sit in the glorious hottub. When I got in the pool, I felt really good and thought I would swim some laps. It was working out, although I have to remind myself to keep kicking my legs (long story). I was just about to start my eighth lap when I almost swallowed a mouthful of water. I was able to spit most of it out but some of it ended up going down the wrong pipe. Needless to say I started hacking..
And I threw my back out again. Even the glorious hottub could not save me.

Good job with swimming laps! One day you will be swimming, and you will finish a lap and realize you did arms and legs all together without consciously thinking about it - we should have a party on that day. I hope your back doesn't stay cranky for too long!
