Of pain in numbness.

Another day.. another story. Yeah..right!!! I wish!!!

I woke up today morning with a really bad pain in my back. Infact, it was the other way around. The pain was what awoke me, so I got up earlier than usual. I just could not understand why it was paining so much. Everything was fine, when I went to bed. Unless, I sleep walk and got bashed up by somebody on the back or fell down the stairs, I cant think of any other logical reason. Anyway, it was bad - i was even having trouble drawing in deep breaths.

I decided to skip bath - i usually look for some excuse for that, but today i had a genuine reason (being in pain, you can cut me some slack, eh?). I walked  down to the office - but the pain persisted, though decreased in terms of intensity.

More mundane work and more frustration and I am mentally buzzed - I feel numb in my head, and i feel some sort of panic rising within me. I dont know why, but some days at the office, i get that feeling.

And that leads us to the present, where I am utterly disoriented and i decide to write this, so that i can take my mind off the 'mind-numbing' work that i am doing...(i was told that the work was challenging, but i didnt know it was challenging this way!!).

I am reminded of two songs (two of my favourites) - one is Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd, and the other is "I want to break free" (by Queens)...

While i struggle to get the rest of the day over with - may these two songs ring in my head and keep me compnay.
