The best laid plans...

[fencerm2]

So I had a LOT of things planned for today.  Many, many things to do.  Writing, my house needs to be cleaned, I wanted to hit the gym, bake a pair of cheesecakes, and then fence.

 

Then I woke up this morning.

 

I could barely walk.  Lying down, standing, sitting - didn't matter, everything caused my lower back to spasm.  I stretched, took a hot shower, and still most movements caused spikes of pain to fire across the base of my spine.  I made a call or two, got in to see a chiropractor, and got adjusted.  Great...but she couldn't eliminate the pain, only lessen it from sharp and shooting to dull and aching.  So I feel better, and can function...but I'm still pretty sore.  Blah.

 

Hit the grocery store for supplies - wow, forgot how bad those places get the day before Thanksgiving - hate the crowds!

 

But - I have a pair of cheesecakes baking!  The original family recipe...and my own experiement - a coffee cheesecake!

 

Dinner is here tomorrow, my sister is cooking the meal, I do dessert (see above cheesecake comment).  Friday morning I am working...and in the evening gaming with lumineaux and company!

 

I hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving!!

So many places to take that, so little time :-)

What? You don't think I'm absolutely serious?

My love can be bought.

with coffee cheesecake.

But I'm not moving to Mordor.

Maybe, if the opportunity presents itself, I'll save you a slice. I won't charge marriage, too much hassle...

But I'm sure I could come up with a price...

[evilnicola.livejournal.com]

you can almost name your price.

I will not prostitute myself out for a single slice.

[fencerm2.livejournal.com]

Right. Money or whole cheesecakes only :-)

[evilnicola.livejournal.com]

who said anything about money?

I will not lower myself to prostitute out for money.

Whole cheesecakes, however, i might be convinced

[evilnicola.livejournal.com]

And are you calling me a hassle? I think I'm offended. :-P

[fencerm2.livejournal.com]

You? No. The concept of marriage? Yes. I mean, all that planning, and the money, and blah blah blah... :-)

[evilnicola.livejournal.com]

if you don't think that i'm more of a hassle than any marriage would be, you're clearly not paying attention

Ack. Hope you're feeling better.

My world currently is at a tilt. I've got a wicked crick in my neck that just won't loosen up. Coughing, sneezing, moving my head at all has become slightly unbearable. So I can certainly sympathize.

Of all the things Griffyn is supposed to teach you, how to throw your back out is not one of them! :-)

Feel better. Happy Thanksgiving.

Well feel better- perhaps a tiger balm cheesecake would help. I think you could get help rubbing it in.

So what is the recepie?
