I'm getting old
So I've been running semi-regularly lately like I used to. Only problem is now after I get back my knee really REALLY hurts. LIke sharp shooting pains that make my knee buckle and me almost fall. My dad had bad knees (blew them both out by age 22) and I think he's passed them onto me. Oh well, maybe this thing will pass, but yeah, I feel old now
I will go crazy and rock out in approximately 40 days
So I got my plane tickets, just need to grab show tickets. The place they're playing at looks more "goth" than I am. I mean look at me!! I'm just gonna stroll in with my sneakers, my jeans, and my The Dreaming t-shirt hours before hand to grab the best spot I can and not let go. I figure, if anyone gives me shit for looking too mainstream/corporate, I'll introduce them to my shoulder or fist and that will end discussion.
Hahahah. The thought of me going to a concert alone and kicking some dude's ass cracks me up mainly because I've never hurt anyone physically off of a football field. But yeah, I got all their lyrics memorized for the songs I've heard and I got the t-shirt a couple of years ago. I am amped and I am psyched already. I also want to return with a hoodie (assuming they still sell them).
Playing Nurse
Came home to see that HelloNurse was doing better after her day of rest. Hopefully I helped her out a little bit. Glad to see her returning to form. Seems Subrosa is not feeling so hot these days either. It's just me and Kitty now holding down the white blood cell/feeling spunky fort. She's totally liking me more now. She actually jumped in my bed the other day
Texas!!! Fight!!!!
Go Horns!!!! Now if we can get past Oklahoma and that Thanksgiving game, we may do alright. I'm am totally glued to the TV all Saturdays from here on out.
God I miss going to those games There was/is this great bar across from Memorial Stadium, I want to say it's called Schultz's. Ah the memories of really greasy and awesome nachos. I don't remember, last game I went to I was 13. I know, I suck. I had free tickets (my dad gets left over tickets as a Texas HS coach) and I didn't use them nearly enough
I feel a random bout of self-depression coming on.
Mood: Patiently waiting
"My life's been wasted
Everything is gone
My life's been wasted
and I am all alone"

A) if you're going to run semi-regularly (which you probably shouldn't with bad knees) you need to have a decent pair of shoes. I know you just got a new pair, but you should probably go to a running accessories store and have them look at the way you walk to suggest some inserts.
B) you should go to the orthopedist and have him check it out. You might have runners knee. My friend got a small knee brace (litterally a 1" thick strap around his knee) and he hasn't had trouble since.
C) ice it.
I just want to make sure you're able to walk for some time to come. I'm sure I'm not as good a nurse as you are, so I'm trying some preventative care here. Take care of your knees - you'll miss them when they're gone.
