Sciatica has been giving me grief all weekend and is still going strong. Made it to church anyway. No food pantry because Mb can't afford the gas and I don't have the money to kick in for any.

All in all, a quiet St Pat's. I had a can of corned beef hash and a beer for dinner, so I felt like I honored the day Yes, I would've prefered a well-simmered brisket in my crockpot, but I do what I can with what I've got. The beer was one of a six-pack I picked up last summer when I was at Mb's. (JW Dundee's Honey Lager, the only beer I really like.) She and I each had one at the time, and I had the third one Sunday; at that rate they'll last another year,

Still no sign of my paycheck--I know they have 30 days to issue a check, but FFS, must they wait the whole time?! I'd like to get my bills paid before the 11th hour, not to mention Steak'n'Shake has a new caramel-salted-prretzel shake that sounds positively orgasmic.

I feel you on the sciatica front. I'm terrified of becoming one of those people who doesn't exercise because of pain or fear of pain, but lately anything beyond riding the bike the short route to and from work raises all kinds of aches and pains in my hip, back and leg regions.

Middle-age has show me the truth of two old sayings, "Youth is wasted on the young." (Especially since I spent so much of my youth wasted!) and, "If I'd known I was going to live this long, I'd've taken better care of my teeth." My teeth are crumbling, in addition to the sciatica, I have poor circulation causing foot and leg pain, my knees are going, and my night vision is shot. On the other hand, knock wood, my immune system is goi g strong; I rarely get sick-sick.
