Bi-Polar week so far

Yesterday I was thrilled to have played golf, and survived. Survived the back spasms and stabbing pain. I’m past that now, which makes me very happy.

Today I had an issue arise which sucks, bad. My great van which hauls my golf gear, business supplies, kids and camping gear all over, died. The transmission is toast. This is not good. The van isn’t very new so I’m in the crappy position of deciding if I dump a bunch of dough into the thing or scrap it and buy another one.

These aren’t the decisions I’d hoped to be making today. Is it 5:00pm yet? Somewhere in any time zone? I think so.

I’m SO happy today. I played golf.

If you’re reading my blog for the first time, you’re probably wondering why I’d post about being so happy to play golf. Well for the last 13 days, I’ve had back spasms from hell. Ever wonder what it would feel like if someone stabbed you in the lower spine with an ice pick? Just ask me.

Today I played a complete round of golf for the first time since July 16th or 19 days. That is an eternity for a golf addict who is used to playing 4-5 times per week. That’s the equivalent of Obama going two sentences without the word “change” in one. In other words, a long freakin’ time.

Though my round today was a high score, I don’t care. I played golf and finished without having to crawl home.

Tomorrow I’ll be happily playing golf with my close golf buddies. My pal Marius from sumi-g wants to take my money. He can have it. I’ll just be happy to play.

Tiger Woods and Steve Williams laugh at loud fart on the 18th fairway, final round Buick Open

I’ve seen some funny things and this is definitely one of them. While watching Tiger Woods win the 2009 Buick Open, someone let out a big fart in the 18th fairway. It sounds like the mic was pretty close to them too. Tiger and caddy Steve Williams couldn’t help but laugh. Ironically right before the fart Nick Faldo says “he needs to try and release a little bit more.”

Sorry but the video is no longer available…

First golf swings since back injury

My back recovery is coming along, but much slower than usual. This last tweak was very bad. I’ve had numerous occasions where stabbing pains and spasms literally caused me to yell or groan. Sitting is not fun. I get very stiff and have to move around to loosen up after sitting for even 5-10 minutes.

While watching Tiger and the final round of the Buick, I’ve been going outside during commercials and making some light golf swings in my bare feet. These are the first swings I’ve attempted since the 21st of July.

I feel okay but very scared to really go for one. I’m going to just keep easing myself into the swings.

Tiger is now on the 18th fairway, with a three shot lead. I’m thinking of strapping on my gear and heading to the range to hit some easy shots and see if I can do it.
