Dislocated my shoulder :mad:

Threw out my back on the way to work this morning. so much fricking pain.

did you muck up a vertebrae? lumbar(near bumb), thoracic, cervical(just below neck )? try and get as much rest as possible and see the physio (i think she's free on campus), don't go bending for any items on the ground( use you knees to flex/bend downwards) pity i could'nt give you a grabber. also rolling is better then getting straight up. and if your going to be doing loads of walking take lots of small breaks so you don't get fatigued. and hold heavy objects close to body or best still don't lift heavy objects up at all.

I might just wander get some physio stuff done by my uncle (acupuncturist/deep muscle massage etc. - usually helps) - though i do have a ton of work i'm supposed to have done that i havent got around to.

this is a reasonably common occurence for me (not so much in the past year or so) so there's a fairly regular supply of antihistemines knocking around the house for such moments.

snorlax

aren't antihistamines for allergies? maybe a chiropractor or some kind of back specialist would work, although stress tends to exaccerbate it (could be some kind of muscle strain), so plenty of rest/ warm bath might help ease it until you can see a specialist, that will relax the muscles.

you only live first once so i'd put my health before my college work, your no good to anyone if your a corspe, well that's what i figured last week when i was sick:)!

Crash

when i said a ton of work, i actually meant for my uncle - i think they're antihistemines - possibly something else. muscle relaxants anyhow iirc.

snorlax

oh well here's picture of to cheer you up:), tis a Japanese Print, very nice one at that...and if you decide to see the physio it's (College health centre)

Anti-inflammatories? Although, if you get allergies might be no harm taking antihistamines, i once had a sore neck pulled muscle during hay fever season - sneezing was not fun.

Rant: Labour for a first time mother lasts on average 10 to 16 hours, or so. If i remain not pregnant for the next 9 months i will have approximately 80 hours or so of period cramps. I've done the maths - i should just get pregnant. Any of you guys want to oblige?

Now now, tell the full story. You're the only person I know that managed to dislocate your shoulder by taking off your bag. On another note, I can't seem to stop drinking (well I can but not sure if I actually want to) and have been doing so since wednesday. Threw up on my (increasingly ample) beard last night, slept on one of the lads' couches, haven't managed to make it back for a shower yet and have to put up with the lovely odour of buckfast and vomit (the latter a consequence of the former) every time I inhale. ARRRRR.

Actually I was drunkenly putting on my extremely awkward and heavy laptop bag on a swerving nitelink.

*is glad he does not have a uterus*

Does the pill not work for cramps? My friend practically became a pill evangelist after she went on it (she went on it to clear up her skin, but the lack of cramps was an unexpected bonus).

Have you suggested artificial insemination? I think you need the human analog to this sort of thing though.

Looong story, but i'm no longer fooling my body that it's pregnant with the wonderful Pill.

ok, i know i'm looking a little scruffy these days, but i ain't lookin' that bad. although as it's procreation not recreation i'm suggesting i suppose i should start looking into the turkey baster option.

Oh, you spunky kid.

damn, they kinda skipped around those details, didn't they. I can't believe the cost to the woman though - £6,000 for the highest level!

Agent Smith

How much does one Get for donating sperm?

Agent Smith

Typical donor payments in Britain — about $23 a donation — are less than half the $50 U.S. donors are paid.

god i love google

I think the middleman should be cut out. Rather like co-op type situation. I'm thinking of setting up such a "producer to consumer" thing, possibly under the guise of a stall on front square where I can sell my wares for a grand a pop to them lesbanians/feminists (blurring distiction, give it up nell, you won the battle, you can vote now) in a suitable vessel. Everyone's a winner, they get man-interference-free kids and I can start assembing my army without having to pay child support. ARRRRRRRRRRRRR!

why does this worry me !

Yeah but if you donate sperm you might well actually have a kid. And you might not know. That thought is not worth €50 to me. No way! I'd hate to think I didn't know my children.

And, if I'm not mistaken, isn't there a chance you can get hit for parental contributions?

I heard that very much wasn't the case.. Similarly you have no legal rights over that child. Nor are you capable of finding out who your child is.
