Pretty much at my peak with stress right now. Found out yesterday a couple of the discs are failing in my thoracic spine. More cortisone injections in the spine to follow, fun. Need to set a appointment with a neuro surgeon to be re evaluated. The Mrs is pretty loaded down with work, and her stress is getting spread across the house. The saying shit rolls downhill applies here, it sucks being stuck in the valley. I hate bitching just for the sake of it, but if I don't vent I'm gonna have a stroke

The news on my back wasn't all that surprising, I am pretty familiar with the symptoms now so I had a rough idea. However, as it sets on you, you start to think about surgery, and the 3 months that follow where your pretty much bed bound. All of it is just piling on, and adding the mental stress to the physical has gotten the better of me.

You sure it's dirt? I had a similar experience, but it was a scratch. Felt like sand that wouldn't move. Had to wear a lame eye patch for two weeks.

@4c:
New word: “affluenza” :o
I read this book years ago: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affluenza:_When_Too_Much_is_Never_Enough
It's a very interesting read that helped me to start thinking broadly and critically about our current preoccupation with growth and accumulation.

I just googled Huntsman spiders. My dreams are crushed now, because I'll NEVER go to Australia.
Seriously, they look badass but aren't likely to bite you. I find them quite fascinating and beautiful in their own way.
I do recall one humorous incident when I was driving at speed along the highway and a huntsman spider popped out from under the hood of my car and started scrambling across the front of my windscreen. I was trying to retain control of my vehicle at 100 km/h while also madly leaning over to quickly wind up the passenger side window so that it couldn't climb into the car.
