Alien Tea Shoppe

I have done something horrendously terrible to my back.  Strain?  Sprain? Something that makes it almost impossible for me to move.  I had a terrible nights sleep last night, but apparently was so exhausted that sleeping in until 15.00 made me feel better, exhaustion-wise, because I do not feel sluggish.
