Injured

I did something to my back today at the gym while bending over to adjust a machine. I wasn't even lifting the weights. Now I can't move without exquisite, excruciating pain.

Seeing a chiropractor in the morning. Fuck.

Stop breast cancer

For my friends ... but particularly by women friends. This website was started today by Dr. Susan Love to try and follow and study healthy women *before* they get breast cancer. This is a blurb from their site:

About Us




Volunteer Spotlight

The Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation and the Avon Foundation, a
global leader in breast cancer research, joined forces to launch the
Love/Avon Army of Women.


Our revolutionary initiative has two key goals:



  • To recruit one million healthy women of every age and
    ethnicity, including breast cancer survivors and women at high-risk for
    the disease, to partner with breast cancer researchers and directly
    participate in the research that will eradicate breast cancer once and
    for all.

  • To challenge the scientific community to expand its
    current focus to include breast cancer prevention research conducted on
    healthy women.



Join us in this movement that will take us beyond a cure by creating
new opportunities to study what causes breast cancer—and how to prevent
it.

I don't want to lose another friend. I miss Talia ... I miss Cait. I want to do what I can to help.

Please look at the website, and considering joining.
