My Non-Celebrity Product Endorsement

Original Post Aug 8, 2006

This past saturday I went to pick Savanah up from her Mom Mom and Pop Pop's house. Having spoken to them earlier in the week I knew that they were packing up Kathy's oldest sisters stuff that has been in storage in their basement for several years and loading it into a U-Haul for a trip up to Canada to deliever it to her. Being the nice guy I am, I offered to help. Considering how much stuff she had there, what they had packed to deliver wasn't all that much, so I had Pop Pop hand me the boxes and I loaded the U-Haul. We managed to get the thing loaded in record time and were about to close it up when Mom Mom notices that we had missed a box of pictures (framed prints and stuff). Well the box wasn't going to fit, but individulally, we could stick the pictures here and there and make em fit. As I'm putting the last one in, it happens. After loading all of the heavy boxes with no problem at all, a framed print weighing no more than a pound does me in. Next thing I know, it hurts to breath and my back feels like a knife was jabbed into it. Well, I get home and whine to Kathy (I'm such a baby when I'm in pain LOL) and she goes out and gets me the Ben Gay Pain Relieving Patch. She puts two of em on my back which is at first a miserable experience (the are ice cold when you first apply them) but then once they warm up are kinda nice. By sunday morning the pain in my back is down about 90% and by Monday pretty much gone. The last time I pulled something in my back I was in pain for a little over a week. This time the majority of the pain was gone in less than 24 hours. Now if I can only get them to pay me for my product endorsement I'd be perfect LOL.
