well...this past week has been absolute crap.  Back pains galore.  Enough to make me come home from work and go straight to bed.  Even now when I arch my back and press my shoulder blades together, I get a nice crunching sound and a smidgen of pain shooting down my spine.  I love it.

Exercise - well...not much this week.  I won't detail Monday because that's in my previous post.  Tuesday I woke up with pain and didn't do anything as it got progressively worse throughout the day.  Wednesday night I skipped lifting, but went and did some sparring/drills at taekwondo.  Well, after about a half-hour, my back tightened up pretty bad, so I was done there.  Thursday and yesterday....rest.  Today?  Well, probably nothing again.  I'm out again until Monday most likely.

There's a tournament coming up in South Carolina at the end of this month and I'm up in the air about competing.  I'm probably going to go regardless, but worst case scenario is I'll skip competing and just coach.  If I do compete, its my last chance to qualify for Nationals down in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.

Weight - still no official reading...this week has been a scratch.

In other news...I'm most likely not going up to South Dakota until Christmas.  I need to save my money and vacation time for Colorado and Washington DC.

Back pain (0-10) - 3 currently...was up to an 8 or so at times during the week.
