Meh, it still hurts. But as it turns out forcing myself to workout and stand for long hours while doing it hasn't helped, so my sister told me to stop . I laying on the floor earlier. It's too cold for me to put on a ice pack. My family refuses to turn on the heat now so I'll just keep suffering

Hey, what about a heating pad? They're about $10 at Walgreens. Maybe even cheaper at Wal-Mart. It just occurred to me....does Chicago (the actual city) have Wal-Mart? I've never seen one there! Course I've not been all over the city.

I don't have a heating pad but when I get bad cramps (you know, THOSE kind) I just lean up against the dishwasher when it's running. LOL you probably think I'm crazy but the heat provides instant relief! For the record, I'm too lazy to buy a heating pad.

LOL whoooooa, I don't know what kind of dishwasher you have, but mine is perfectly still. Otherwise, if it was warm AND vibrating, I'm sure I'd eventually start to enjoy more than just the heat

Course I've not been all over the city. Well, not in the city, but in the surburbs. In fact, about 90% of my shopping is done in the surburbs because it's just better shopping. I just really live here and buy food. I don't use the city for much else ;D

I was shocked to learn that cities and their suburbs don't usually have Super Wal-marts. I went to Wal-Mart one night when I was visiting my boyfriend at the time (who lived near O'Hare) and it was closed! At 10:30 at night! That's just wrong, Wal-Mart is meant to be open 24 hours a day

No, not right by O'hare, we had to travel quite a ways down Elmhurst Road to get to it. I have no idea what town it was in, but we drove a good 20-25 minutes to get there. At least I think it was Elmhurst Road. I can't remember which roads lead where up that way anymore
