Things That I have done latley

• Saw Walking with Dinosaurs with Shannon (we had front row seats!) It was my christmas present from her.
  
• Went To Asilomar with Shannon and her family
  
  • Hung around Carmel, Pacific Grove, and the like
    
  • Toured the Christmas bonanza 'round there
    
  • Made pretend that I had Shannon's cousin as a cape.
    
    • He intended to make it very authentic by locking his arms around neck and becoming dead weight. That was not so fun. He is not a little kid. He is 18 and probably weighs 220 lbs.
    
    
  • On our way out of Asilomar, Shannon and I took a little trip u to my cousin's house.
    
    • She and her boyfriend are constructing a fairly big house way up in the hills beyond Carmel Valley. We had to drive way way out until there was no more pavement, and then she came and and got us in a big truck to tack us the rest of the way. It was exciting and very pretty.
    
    
  • Our next stop was at Shannon's friends' new home farther north, off 101. It was also very pretty out there. Their house is already set up with a pen for when they get goats.
    

On Tuesday, I intended to make ice cream, but my plans were halted due to the fact that my body became immobile with intense pain. So instead I spent the day wanting to die, lying around, and having excruciating back spasms. Wednesday I went to the doctor and he said I'd probably be doing better in a few days. In the meantime he prescribed me a muscle relaxant and a painkiller. It still hurts, but I can get stuff done. So that's that.
