A quick health update: got in to see the doc again this morning. Nothing very exciting came out of it; he said it's spasming and swollen. Lots of ice, lots of ibuprofen, and as much walking as I am comfortable doing (apparently the motion is good for keeping things loose.) He also wrote me a scrip for some vicodin, mostly to help me get through the plane flights to and from Hawaii, which I am really not looking forward to. As a 6'3" guy with two tricky knees, flights are unpleasant enough as is, the addition of a back that stiffens up after 20 minutes isn't helping.
But things do seem to be getting a bit better with serious application of ice and rest. I did go for a 25-ish minute walk tonight, which wasn't terrible, but didn't seem to make things any better either...

That is *so* like you, Dave. You just can't deal with your best friend getting all the glory over medical stuff, so you have to go get hit by a car and have back problems. Sheesh.
