Oldness.

I feel very old today.  My back went all wacky just before boarding my first flight home.  Tragic.  So, if any of you are still looking for a Christmas present to give me, you could get me a bag of ice, a tub of icy hot, or a hot pad.  I think I am getting old.  It is weird, I actually do something to my back about two times per year.  One is usually sometime in December.  Maybe it is a release of stress that does it.  My body finally goes:  "Oh good I have some time to hurt now."  Weird.
 
My first day home was a good one.  I pretty much didn't do anything but be on the internet or be in front of the TV.  Seems like my life always, actually.  I also went with my mom to Walmart, which wasn't as much of an adventure as I thought it might be this close to Christmas.  We also stopped at the Claridge and played a game of trivia.  I sure have missed my favorite bar.
 
Today, I have iced my back and watched TV.  I also took a very hot shower.  I do not know which works better, the cold or the hot.  The back hurts the same either way.  Oh well.
 
Tonight, a few of my friends from high school are getting together with our parents (and kids, only a few have kids) to have pizza.  Should be a good time.  I haven't seen one of my friends in about three or four years.  Crazy.  I hate when I lose touch with cool people.  Sam's Pizza in one of my favorite things in Wausau and I will enjoy partaking of it this evening.  I will be sure to take pictures of the event. 
 
It is supposed to snow a lot tonight and tomorrow, so my trip to Green Bay is in limbo.  I hate lame weather when I need to be traveling.  I will be very sad if I don't get to see all my relatives. 
 
Well, TTFN.

P.S.  For those of you wondering why I have a picture of DK shaving his legs, he did that because our students raised over 100 dollars for Sub for Santa.  Another teacher also had to go platinum blond because the kids raised over 200 dollars.  I think the kids really liked all of these things.  I personally liked watching the shaving of the legs even though it was kinda gross!  I can always count on DK for gross stuff.    He is the Biology teacher after all! :)
