Title: I hurt myself...
Post by Serowbot on 03/18/13 at 00:05:09

I did,.. I really did...
...and I can't decide,.. if it's a tax injury, or a decorating injury...

... and this will require some explanation... :-?...

I strained some rib muscles... (honest god).. doing my taxes
Due to space limitations, and the inability to make a computer set-up look aesthetically pleasing... I have my main computer set-up in an awkward cubby that requires me to sit sidewards, and look right...
During the complicated process of doing taxes,...I sat sideways,... and ended up doing a sorta' half sit-up twisted to the right, for several hours per day, over about 3 weeks...in order to type nonsense into about 30 pages of forms... and must have slowly, strained a bunch of rib muscles on my left side... to the point that I couldn't take deep breaths, had trouble sleeping, and suspected I might be having a heart attack...
... and being old enough to have unexplained hurts here and there, now and then,... I just never noticed until it was ridiculously agonizing...
But, who knew... you could get an injury from meticulous decorating and confusing tax forms?...

Anyway,... now that I've realized what was causing the problem,.. and I got my taxes done...
I'm getting better... :-?...

I was t-boned by a truck, and totaled a Sportster 3 years ago,... and this tax filing injury hurt nearly as much...
I blame it on age... it's not that we get weaker... it's that we become more tolerant of pain,... and ignore the signals that we should correct anything until absolute agony sets in...
... or it's senility... and I'm forgetting how much it hurts to do a 3 hour sit-up, with a half twist...
Whatever it is... just be safe out there,... while you do yer' taxes...
:-?...

Take a bath with epson salts to loosen the muscles up, and a warm compress before bed will help relax them and then when you are feeling better work on making your PC area more user friendly ;)

Hmmm I haven't worked in almost four years.....I forget what doing taxes is like :o

sit the other way for a few minutes every so often, till it stops.

If you had been out riding, instead of producing fantasy nonsense for the IRS, your back would not be hurting-your butt maybe, but not your back.

I blame it on age...

So, you checked the double personal exemption for being 65 or older,huh? Good job! Now who could that be at your door. Oh, Meals on Wheels here to serve the elderly. Yum!!!! 8-)

Unfortunately, two more tax returns and I will be checking that box. :(
