      @CLJ while I know it sucks to deal with, from my understanding lumbar surgeries are the easier of spinal procedures. Are they fusing? Listen to the wise words of @seanocono Core strength and maintaining mobilty of surrounding levels will help you feel better and prolong the health of the surrounding discs. I have had a cervical fusion, have 4 thoracic deviations (2 bulging 2 herniated) and 2 lumbar fractures that never healed proper. Decompression and strict core workouts are what keeps me upright

        @Snowy:

        One of my neighbors has a battery dying in a smoke detector. I've been hearing it 'beep' every minute for 3 days now. Fuck me, how hard is it to replace a battery! (or maybe they're dead, and fuck me can't someone stop that beeping, they're dead!)

        Every minute for 3 days? Are they on vacation? Maybe have the police perform a "welfare check" at the home.

          @Finn666:

          if you're concerned that you have a heart attack or such thing…don't call the ambulance 😠

          930USD!... what the fuck!? 😠 😠 😠

          Wow. Do you have health insurance? Are they sending you a bill? I rarely see medical bills because they go to my health insurance company first and get paid there. (I've also never been in an ambulance. I plan to drop dead promptly, at a reasonable age, with no fuss to anyone.)

              Stopped after about a week. I think they were on holidays. I couldn't work out which unit it was and there was many closer neighbours who must have been going worse insane.

                          Bunch of frozen bastards we are! @pillowPANTS I have been wanting to hit the UP/Canada the last couple years and just never get to it. Will have to make it a priority to get up there with the kids this year, once it thaws of course.

                            Frozen here too in Boston. In 3 weeks, we had 4 storms, and around 7 feet of snow (according to today's weather broadcast). It's 4 degrees F right now and -17 with wind chill. This coming week is supposed to be the coldest since 1934 and more snow coming.

                              For contrast, yesterday was 80° and sunny here.

                                @Seth glad we have dodged large amounts of snow this year. After last I would have offed myself seeing that much!

                                @Chris brutal is appropriate! Have needed the Bemidji Super Jacket the past few days, while you probably sweat just looking at wool hahaha

                                          Thanks guys. Im being really careful it is just hell being immobile and stuck inside all the time. I can't wait for this to be fixed and rehab in time for summer.
