Things I have in common with Tony LaRussa, a list, by heyzeus:

1. Both are carbon based life forms.
2. Both have law degree
3. Both possess brilliant baseball minds
4. Shingles

Number four is the kicker. Over the past few days I've had intense radiating pain in my shoulder and upper arm, sometimes the elbow, sometimes the forearm. I worried I had a pinched nerve or tore a muscle or maybe a tumor was pinching a nerve (IT'S NOT A TUMAH!)

Went to the doc last night. Nope, it's shingles. I had no idea it hurt this bad or this way. I can barely lift my arm.

Added bonus rant: Zeus Jr. Jr. spiked a fever right before I went to the doc to get diagnosed. I thought I just had a muscle strain; instead, I probably gave her chicken pox. She's still too little and hadn't been vaccinated yet. NEAT!

You've also looked the other way knowing full well everyone on this message board is juicing.

Sorry about the Shingles and the fam.

I do like juice. Strawberry/banana blend? That's really good. I'll look the other way for that.

Sooo - you didn't attend the Glenn Beck rally?

And you don't like kittens?

puppies>kittens
Glenn Beck=shingles

Ugh! That sucks!

If she has chicken pox, tape mittens to her hands.

I had them on my face and it was awful.

At least mine is just the arm/shoulder, but damn it hurts.

I didn't realize you were old enough to have shingles. Everyone that I know that's had them is 60+
