* I managed to somehow injure my left hip and a bunch of the muscles over my ribs and chest that side. It feels like the sort of thing best solved by acupuncture and tiger balm, but I can't afford acupuncture, so I am having to do my best with what I have. It means too sleeps of only being able to sleep on my right side, which is really hard on the hip on that side, what with the AS. The ability to roll over is crucial at spreading out the pain and preventing damage. it means two of the best three position in which I sit at my desk hurt, and the other really fucking hurts. If I am cranky, this is why.
