Fuck. I am getting old.
 

I can't believe this. 2:30 in the morning, unable to sleep because I am in so much pain.

For the last two or three hours my upper shoulders, up the sides of my neck have been killing me. It is painful just to lay on the couch. I have been running the day through my head. How did I hurt myself?

I rearranged a little firewood, no big deal. I have been bringing logs in to burn, but not that heavy. Did I twist trying to close the door while holding the wood or something? Then it hit me. Metallica.

The pain started about 24 hours after the concert ended. Apparently I can't do four hours of fists over my head, hands waving without feeling it the next day.

I remember my daughter-in-law saying something about the music being too loud. I told her, "if it is too loud, you are too old." I don't know if I am going to tell her about this.

Guess it might be a good time to join a gym again.

u do alot of drugs when you were young?

everybody is getting old, we are mortals on this earth for a very short time

every second past is a second that is gone forever

Hey men, these are symptoms of spinal problems. I wish i 'm wrong, but take care of this.
Also take a look here:

It was the 60's and 70's and SoCal. You decide what is a lot.

Nah, now that I know the cause I know for sure it is muscle pain and not a pinched nerve. I can even mentally relax the muscles for short periods of time.

I spent many years going to the gym daily.

fak im askin n bern serious


i got some idiot ex friends who may as well been living in a snow bank in summer time if you knaw mean knaw saying. :2 cents:

just saying alot of that shit affects people, even though my grandpa was "healthy" and the last of his friends to die was a hardcore alcoholic and smoker... how does that work? :1orglaugh

Put it this way, we did things you can only read about.

As far as grandpa's friend, only the good die young. That's why you guys are stuck with me for a while.

nigga i agree with you to find some real sheet these days you better have some real fuckin connects and it aint easy for every kind of food group. been dere done dat. :1orglaugh

You need concert circuit training... and so do I again... we should start hitting new shows weekly until the problem corrects itself.

Well, I was thinking about it, and I just saw a concert in Germany in Nov, and a few months before that I saw Ozzie and Rob Zombie, so it isn't like I haven't had the opportunity, but I don't recall any of the previous acts causing me to have my hands up over my head for an extended period of time. I guess it would depend on the act.

I'am a fitnessinstructor, joining a gym is a good idea, it can prevend a lot of health issues..

yup, time to join the guy homeboy $.02

nothing makes you feel young again like a 20 y/o ladyboy...

you should get one... :2 cents:

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:thumbsup

How old are ya BD?

Go to the gym.....I'm amazed at the fitness of some of the old men in there....

you're an old fuck BD, I bet I won't even make it to your age, congrats on living past 70

if it makes you feel any better.. I was out with the kids making a snowhill in our backyard and i wake up this morning hurt like fuck.. need to get out more.

even thou im hurt im pumped.

Hope you get well soon man. It doesnt have to be age-related really.

Sitting on GFY 20 hours a day might have something to do with it.

Number one reason I started trying to hit more festival type setup shows than "headliner" shows. As long as you like a couple acts it makes the entire experience worth it. Unfortunately past 2-3 years I have been to almost none, which is killing me. Going from working in Hollywood being at a show every night, to one to two shows a month, down to sitting on the computer all day is killing me :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I thought they check id's at rock concerts no one over 60 admitted?

Still probably wouldn't hurt to get that checked out hon..... my husband has a pinched nerve and so do I and I know when we do the least little thing it will set it off. It doesn't ALWAYS hurt, sometimes for a few days at a time on the excruciating level and some days for only a little while at a time and some days not even at all, but the LEAST little thing can snap and cause it to hurt so bad you don't feel like you'll ever move again.

I have 3 herniated disks, degenerative disk disease and all of the nerves in my back are pinched........ and my husband has his Syatic(sp?) nerve pinched..... and this sounds an awfully familiar.

Better to get it checked now so you know..... you don't want that to be what it is and cause more extensive damage, trust me. I have not taken very good care of mine and it hurts now more than it doesn't. Just walking to the mailbox somedays is more than I can do.

Just have it looked at, that's all.

I have the same problem, i think I slepted in a funny position last night. I tend to fall asleep hugging the pillow ( no jokes please ) and wake up on my side, so who the fuck knowns what positions iv got into. Stuff my back up all day anyway...

the gym sounds like a good idea!

Aches and pains? Welcome to my world.

Could use some of those quality 70's "medications" right about now, actually.

Yes, some ludes would make for some nice muscle relaxers. At least the pain has subsided today . . . a little.

I let the exercising slide for a few weeks. The other day I got back on the multi-gym and did 4 sets of bench and 4 sets of lat pulldowns, with lighter weight and more reps just to get the blood flowing again.

I've been in pain for going on 3 days now. :(

Although, there has been a change in the weather of late. That always puts an ache in the old joints too.

Especially in winter.

Get well soon BD.

I can not imagine living in Canada in the winter. I had to tell goodgirl that I am not coming out to Indiana in the winter unless it is an emergency. My bones never feel like that at my house.

My fucking freezer isn't as cold as your "warm" days.

Drink Green Tea!

Any particular flavor, or just as long as it is green?

If they had a "pit" good thing you didn't go into it

straight green tea and another tea "red raspberry" or something for taht extra zip

A lot was such a-a-a----- floating concept then man. Damn. We all did what we had and could get--never thought about whether it was alot LMAO.

:pimp

It was all about who could consume the most.

Drink calcium vitamins..

You just realized you were old now????

Due.. you were old when Columbus landed.

Actually... I love the cold, and I love the change in the seasons we have here. You can't believe how fresh the air is outside on a day (like today) when it's snowing. No, the thing that gets into my bones is the weather changes themselves. doesn't really matter what weather it is. When that barometric pressure takes a wild up or downswing, my back and neck tend to get jammed up.

But then again I grew up here, playing outdoor hockey, snowball fights, building snowforts, giving girls the facewash treatment, well... no regrets here.

I had a nice jetted tub installed in my basement about 5 years back, and it's heaven on these kinds of aches, so I guess I have little to complain about. But I DO have days like you where I'm saying DAMN I'm getting old. Or at least feeling old. :D

A good excercise is also dance lessons. It is more expensive than a gym but at least you can dance. I dance for years and it's amazing. Note that i'm 46 y.o It is not so easy for me as for a 20 y.o but is not impossible to dance as young. It is a daily physical and mental therapy. Makes me feel much younger and the most important: I attract young girls. It is a magnet for womens ( if you are not a 100% idiot).

:thumbsup

i'd recommend dancing for people who want to exercise and have fun. really great sport

Well it happens. At least you still have your looks
