I'm throwing myself a pity party.
I am way too young to have all these aches and pains. Way too young. I'm at the tail end of Gen X, we're not old like those Baby Boomers.
But in the last year and a half my right arm has had to deal with brachial neuritis, then tennis elbow (tendonitis), then tennis elbow coming back and golfer's elbow (tendonitis) at the same time, then a torn ligament, and now there's suspicion that I have cartilage damage from the ligament tear. Basically instant onset arthritis. And all the rule out tests also showed I have an asymptomatic C5-C6 cervical disc bulge to the right and asymptomatic mild arthritis in my right elbow.
I'm too freaking young to have age related crap going on. As of today I'm a whopping 44 years old...but I'm not even sure if I can have a birthday meal or if that's going to end up a disaster because of aches and pains. Maybe Olive Garden, I could manage a short pasta like ziti paired with ground sausage. Nothing that involves cutting.
I'm tempted to check out what liquor I have in the house. What goes with birthday cake?
