i dunno if i posted this when it happened or not, but i hurt my back about a week ago...i'm not saying how for fear of making myself looking like a pathetic loser type of person.... anyways, i hurt it again doing yardwork last week.... then again testerday, the pain wnet away the last couple of times, though this time the pain has lingered... to the point in which i had to go to the doctor.. she said that my bad posture is most likely the reason. my bad posture is due mainly to 2 things: 1. is genetics, my family has a bit of a history with back problems including bad posture... damn genes! 2. is my computer desk, for those of you who havent seen it, its like a friggin wardrobe.. it has doors and it has all kinds of shelf-like things that come out all the way to the front.... leaving no room for my legs, also, it has a pull out keyboard shelf... so, with the combination of pullout keyboard and no leg room, it sometimes forces me to hunch over to get a good look at what the hell is on my screen. so.. if anyone has a nice big sturdy computer desk (preferably an L shaped one with planty of desktop space.... im looking to get a new one ;-)
