You're a pain in the...back

Woke up with a massive back ache today. This is interesting only because I used to build a back ache over the course of the day and wake up miraculously better, and the pattern has completely reversed. It's doubtless I will never understand the inner workings of my body; days occur when I feel like super woman followed by days that I'm convinced that lasting until 3pm is a insane expectation.

The recent back pain has prompted a visit to the doctor and a prescription for physical therapy...which I am not going to lie, I'm pumped for. The whole situation has resulted in one of my dad's favorite cheesy jokes playing on repeat in my head. It goes along the lines of: "When did you get that weak back?" "Oh, about a week back." Ahh, homonyms.

I wonder if universal health care would cover a Swedish masseuse to handle my back issues...preferably named Sven.
