Pain Last Night
Last night, I could hardly get a wink of sleep for the pain that began around noon yesterday afternoon. It was a lousy pain, that started on the right side around the back, and that spread forwards to a point on my right side just beneath the diaphragm.
I thought it was a bad case of indigestion. However, nothing I took could shift the damned thing, until this morning when I realised that it was actually a pulled back muscle.
Based on that hypothesis, I went into the kitchen, pulled down some tiger balm - Sean's tiger balm, another thing my brother no longer has any need for - and applied it to my back.
The pain was gone within five minutes.
