I had my allergy shots this morning. I’m in agony right now.  Not from the shots, but from the pain in my back muscles as they spaum.  Every since I have had the operation on my lower back to reduce the pain in my right leg, the pain in my back from the rest of the back muscles spasuming is out of control.  When I saw the surgeon this week, he looked and noticed how badly swollen the mucles were and agreed that I needed immediate relief from the situation I was in. He put in for mucle relaxing trigger point injections to relax the mucles. But other than lying down and taking muscle relaxers, there is little I can do at this point. I do have a hot tub, but if I push Ron to open it and get it ready to work, he will have to stop the work on the rest of the projects, including my new office, which I really need finished. So I suffer and often go to bed.  

This video is a great way to talk about how to deal with Christian nationalist bigotry and the forcing of Christian religion on others who have different beliefs.  In fact I read a post while waiting for my shots about a new trend of Christian evangelicals going on airplanes and forcing those in the plane to listen to sermons and preach about the Christian god.  I don’t get this, but I experienced something similar in the military, where a sect of Christians would try to cornor me every time I sat down for a meal in the chow hall to eat they would swarm my table demanding I listen to them talk about their god.  It did not make me feel better about their faith nor did it make me less gay, which was their real goal.  In fact when I returned the gesture to talk to them about my beliefs, they got really offended. Strange how they think pushing their religion goes only one way in their minds.  The thing is they know religion is a protected class where sexual orientation is not, but some friends and I came up with a good way to discourage them.  We would listen to their spiel if they listened to ours first.  We then spun them a made up religion on the house of Approditie, a religion based on having sex and being body worshippers. They got so grossed out over having to discuss the sex and nudity that they stopped pushing their shit on me.  I wonder if it would work today on the religions and indiscretions you hear about in the news.   Hugs.
