Work Talks
On bad backs, baked goods as solace

Elizabeth: Something about my chair is fucking up my back. I keep getting weird jabby pains down my leg. Feels like when you hit your funnybone.
Me: Welcome to my life
Elizabeth: So I know it’s something to do with my sciatic nerve.
Me: it’s your sciatica
Elizabeth: Heh. Yeah.
Me: hahaha, brain twiiiiiins
Elizabeth: Yay!
Elizabeth: Someone needs to buy both of us a coke.
Elizabeth: One of my chiropractors showed me in a diagram once. I’m pretty sure it’s the pressure of all my fat pinching my nerves. ;-)
Elizabeth McNabb: He didn’t SAY it, but…
Me: hahahaha
Elizabeth: There’s a fine line between enough fat to cushion, and enough fat to smother.
Elizabeth: LOL
Me: I’M SORRY I LIKE EATING OKAY
Me: *weeps into a doughnut*
Elizabeth: Hahahaa… I had an awesome visual of my poor little sciatic nerve waving its little arms frantically as it slowly suffocates.
Me: hahahah
Elizabeth: Hahahahahah… tears make doughnuts even better.
Me: Absolutely, it’s that sweet/salty combo.
