Nothing gold can stay

I am a firm believer in the saying, "you're only as old as you feel". I usually feel young and great..like I'm in my 20's.. alright.. late 20's. Dejectedly until 4 days ago.  I was blow drying my hair and I bent over to dry it faster. When I stood up I got the worst pain in my neck. I may have whipped my hair back and forth like Willow Smith said to, thus creating the physical pain I was encountering.  I stood there holding my neck in disbelief that just flipping my hair back and forth caused such fucking pain. Literally my hair was a pain in my neck. Now here it is days later and it still hurts like hell causing me to turn to the left like Frankenstein. Last night as I lay my aching neck on the heating pad, I dozed off watching TV. (yes....Like an old lady) When I was startled awake by a commercial that was way too loud, I took some vitamins and supplements and went to bed like I have for years. For some unknown reason my body DID NOT agree with my choice of Iron supplements. I woke up at 3:30 a.m. with heartburn and a tummy ache. As I lay in bed, I thought to myself "damn it, today I feel old".  Did I mention I had to have a baby tooth pulled? Now I have a gap in my teeth.  sigh, yes, its true. So, I can no longer have lotsa lactose, sleep through anything, drink liquor or dance like I used to. Matter a fact I sit here in a bent over sad and painful contorted position on my couch almost in an upright fetal position.  I say alas, today.. I feel 105. I will take my blood thinning 325mg of asprin, take out my false teeth and curl up under an afghan in my quiet bedroom. After a great Xanex induced sleep I will wake up and feel like I am 28 again. :)
