Hmmm... tried to fast, but then was tempted by peanut butter and milk. At least I went to the cynagogue - the only reform one we have in the range of, like, fifty miles.

It was a rough one for me. The anticipated headache came and throbbed, as anticipated. But I also had really bad joint pains, and they got progressively worse through the day. My fingers got numb and the pain in my wrists radiated up my arms to meet and embrace the pain in my shoulders. My back ached so severely that I couldn't do the little bows in Shemona Esrai and Alenu. Hip, knee, ankle and foot pain all joined together in the spirit of harmony and unity to become one big conglomerate of pain.
I've never had that reaction before. I wonder what brought it on.
After breaking the fast, I gradually felt better and am now returned to my regular self.

Glad you're feeling better. Sorry you had a rough Yom Kippur. My knees didn't much like the bowing either, but overall my fast was pretty ok.
And one of the families sponsored a really nice break-fast, so I didn't even have to cook or anything.
