Gettin' old... or perhaps just hurt

I know it's been a few weeks again, but what do you want me to write about when there's not much going on!? There's volleyball every now and then, and curling a little more often, but still nothing ground shattering or even remotely interesting... except for constant lower back pain.
 
I first felt it in the summer after a softball game (I think I dove for a ball, or slid headfirst) and was sore for a few days afterwards. It went away, and I didn't think much of it. Until our last couple games, everything was okay. I dove a couple more times in the Championship Games (1 & 2, best of 3) and hurt quite a bit the week after.
 
It came and went, but never disappeared completely and some days was extremely painful. I was just waiting for whatever I bruised to clear up, and a month later it still hasn't. So, I went to the doctor today...
 
I was in and out quickly with a referral for x-rays, a chiropractor, and a prescription for some anti-inflammatory medication. Got the x-rays done at lunch, picked up the meds, and made my appointment for the chiro on Monday...  so we'll see how it goes.
 
If you're reading this and worried about me, don't be. I've been dealing with it for a month and it's probably just a deeper bruise, or an inflamed joint or something. I'll be fiiiiiine.
 
I'm off to NYC to see my good friend Bryan this weekend, and of course to see the Leafs... likely lose... to the Rangers.
