Volcano

I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today. Actually, there wasn't any waking up to do because I didn't really sleep.

Uninvited thoughts and feelings aside, my lower left back was aching - feeling terribly bruised. Having gone through this before, I panicked and made an appointment to see Dr. Wong over lunch.

Fatigue aside (he noticed my eyebags), he said everything looked in order. Regardless, he gave me painkillers to remedy the situation in the meantime. But it wasn't enough to allay my concerns. Because I've been here before...

Just when you think everything's alright, wham!
