20 days left before Asnida gets here :)

counting down...

Three weeks left, 21 days to go! :-D

Im Westen nichts Neues. Not much news. Still trying to acquire a car, put in the paperwork with the bank to get a lease contract. Once they finish their paperwork I can arrange the car insurance and pick up the car. Might take a while though.

Started teaching this week and so far things are going well enough. The students seem to have accepted the fact that the course is in English so it should be fun for the next 3 months :-)

Still counting down until Asnida gets here. It will be exactly five weeks from tomorrow. The weather is slowly picking up with less rain and slightly higher temperatures so it should be nice once April starts.

Movie night at my place tonight. We'll be watching Monsoon wedding. It's also listed on http://www.icheckmovies.com/ so my nerdiness shall be pleased :-)

Just saw this vid and felt the need to share :-)

My next big purchase is going to be a car. Will look into some car deals and see what the options are concerning relatively cheap new cars and payment plans.
Then I won't have to be so dependent on the irregular bus schedules and will be able to pick up Asnida at the airport on April 2 :-)

back in back

Small update time. After a week of taking pills I figured it was time to go see a chiropractor. Have been there twice so far, 3rd appointment on Thursday. The back is pretty much back to normal but still has the usual stiffness and slight soreness. My chiropractor says she wants to correct my posture now ha. Good luck with that seeing how I can't avoid sitting behind the computer a lot.

Steelers are going to play their 8th Superbowl on February 6 :-)
I'm trying to convince some colleagues to watch the game but the kick off time (11:30pm local time) might be a tough sell. Either way, I'll be watching and let's hope the Steelers get to 7th heaven!

Back pain...

I'm really getting old. Since early last week I developed a serious lower back pain/soreness which didn't want to heal. So I went to the hospital today and after being given a muscles relaxer shot in my ass they prescribed me 3 different meds and no sitting allowed the next few days.
No idea what caused the back pain. Maybe just old age, maybe my sister's bed, maybe too much sitting around, maybe too much sex (mat salleh! besar gajah!), maybe too much air travel crap. Either way I'm glad to finally have gone to the hospital. Pain killers are awesome!!!
