ouch

I woke up this morning with the stiffest neck. I guess what people at home would call salah bantal, i slept in "the wrong way" last night, possibly due to me switching my pillows over. I've 2 very soft pillows that are not thick and firm enough for me. I'm a side sleeper, but my shoulders are too broad for my own good sometimes, so sleeping on a flat, soft pillow give me neck aches. But putting the 2 pillows together makes it way too thick. I've been sleeping on one pillow, with my blanket folded underneath it, but somehow the blanket feels too hard and I often wake up with a sore cheek, or sore ears. So last night I switched my pillow and woke up in agony. bleh...i miss my hypoallergenic, anti dust mite, 100% getah(rubber) Malaysia, anti stress (it's got magnets in it, I kid you not) pillow at home.

And so I had trouble turning my head more than 45 degrees in either direction, resulting in me having to turn my whole torso whenever I want to look over my shoulder today. This is what it must feel like to have a neck brace.

As if that isn't bad enough, I crashed my knee once again into the corner of my bed post, sending a sharp pain that radiated through my entire leg. My entire knee now looks like a blueberry, especially since my knobbly knee cap protrudes out anyway.

AND, in my effort to maneuver around the corner of the stairway, with a stiff neck, limited range of motion of my upper body, and semi limping on my very bruised knee, I banged my hip on the stairway handle - right square on my pelvic bone.

Now, I don't know why people say I'm such a klutz. I was a rhythmic gymnast, for goodness sake!
