    Back pain after a "good" night’s sleep.

    HOT! HEALTH 
    For me they barely saw it on an xray. The pain shifted when it moved. For a while it disguised as back pain in the center/lower back then moved to the left side and I knew something was different.

    Back pain after a "good" night’s sleep.

    HOT! HEALTH 
    This sounds silly but are you certain it's bone/structural and not kidney or other pain? I've had kidney stones that felt like a back pain issue until they shifted, or kidney pain from certain diet issues. If you've eliminated that as a possibility, then good.

    Those of you who are very social and have alot of friends, how do you do it?

    I was pretty socially awkward in college for various reasons. A few things helped: Sports you can do in groups. I ended up doing a lot of biking on the road and off the road, and even did a mountain biking race thanks to some friends I met. Clubs/activity groups. You have to be careful with...

    My taste came back a lot quicker than my smell. I caught it again recently, but it was no where near as bad as the first time. Didn't totally lose taste/smell like before but I did lose some. It's already coming back fast. What is rewarding is when you start getting complex smells back and...

    The Garmin Fenix is great. I have one and took it out of town, where I didn't have a charger, and on low battery mode it wasn't even a concern. Just used it for time and as a GPS to track activities when I was swimming and running. Also it's a great speedometer for sports, including...

    Needs to be said... sell the DAMN motorcycle.

    HOT! RANT 
    I had 3 different motorcycles, one after another, traded or sold when I upgraded. My last one was a ZX-10R. In retrospect, it was a ton of bike that wasn't justified for my skill level, but I wanted it so I got it. Extremely quick. I didn't have many oopsies and had never ever crashed a bike...

    Fed Up With Your Country? Where Is Left to Go?

    HOT! 
    Yes! My selection of where to live in Europe, pre-2020, was driven by communities in a social hobby I have. I met tons of people this way and they also helped me some with their language. If that hobby didn't exist in a different place I would find an adjacent one. Doing something like surfing...

    I had 3 different motorcycles. My last one, a zx10-r, got stolen right after my birthday. I didn't act like an idiot on it compared to what I had seen, but I do wonder if that theft kept me alive longer.... Thankfully there are other sports that have lots of adrenaline with significantly less...

    Nope I'm surprised that it took this long to get it. I had been exposed so many times to sick people over the past year and a half, go out frequently, etc. I thought I was immune because there was no way I was that lucky. I guess the latest variant finally snuck past my defenses?

    Thank you! Most everything is better now other than a lingering cough and my taste and smell is slowly recovering from 0%. It's about 5% right now. The fatigue is real but I think it'll clear up quickly. The loss of smell was weird and surprised me. I had a cold burning sensation in my nostrils...

    I ended up getting *it* finally. Hadn't been sick in two years. It was like a normal seasonal cold but a little bit worse. Fever and chills were bad but about 8-9 days total sickness. Now I'm just dealing with the fallout of fatigue. Hoping for more energy to come back soon, as I've basically...

    Went to a comedy show last night, someone who has been creatively getting around censors by parodying what's been going on the past two years. It was great, he went out totally unfiltered. The whole room was in uproar over the insanity and hypocrisy. The market is out there. Still a bit giddy...

    I'm in a similar situation 6fig job that lets me work remote but this is coming down the line any time now. And I've been so distracted by the new insanity taht I haven't been working hard on the side. At least I've got solid savings.

    The news this year, unfortunately, has consumed a lot of my attention. I've been trying to get out and enjoy life as much as possible, as even though I'm in FL I'm greatly concerned about further restrictions later this year. I'm hoping that's not the case, but preparing for it. I may lose my...

    This is where I have been going to clear my head and forget about everything else for the past year. Since starting windsurfing back up (I wasn't that good before, just a mediocre beginner) mid last year, I've learned how to do so much. Ride waves. Ride a hydrofoil. Now, I'm riding an all out...

    Yeah no doubt on the transport problem. My race foil board is almost 1m wide and 2+m long, with quite a large sail. However, there is also WINGsurfing now, which is getting very popular. Easier to learn and easier to transport. Worth looking into as well. Or wingfoiling.
