i am getting old. this must be the year i turn thirty.

i creak when i descend the stairs.

my knee gives out when i stand from a seated position.

i have had the muscles in my back, shoulders, neck, and chest compared to a sheet of steel i'm so tense.

i have a tendon in my left shoulder that repeatedly slips out of place and hurts like crazy when i use my arm because of this. likewise, when my sister puts it back in place, it Really Freakin' Hurts.

3 of my ribs pop out of their little resting places also because of this.

i need $500 for a spa weekend, please.

thanks.
