    Back pain really really really sucks.

    2 day hangovers
    Falling asleep on the couch at 11:30...on a Friday night.
    Falling asleep during an attempt to play video games “late night”.
    Slight knee discomfort squatting ( natural, but degenerative, feathering of the cartridge).
    Waking up injured ( neck area ).
    Being chronically early to events.
    Getting frustrated by other people’s lack of social awareness.
    Driving with no radio.
    Looking forward to organizing the garage and shed.
    Not bothering to engage in back and forth arguing with clutchfan folks on various matters in an attempt to come to a reasonable understanding.

    I’d say more, but it’s time for bed. I have work in the morning.

    Not to be a bummer, but as you really age:

    Realizing you are slowly becoming invisible to a lot of younger people.

    Sorry. Carry on.

    Ugh, all of the above...:confused:
    But yeah, the neck or sudden back pain that lasts for days or weeks is what really pisses me off. :mad:
