Update on Skippy

Well, it's an improvement over last Tuesday/Wednesday, when my legs cramped up for no apparent reason despite being relatively rested.  I say 'relatively' because Wednesday I don't have to switch buildings at work, but today tells me that seriously, I should not be walking at all. I rested all day yesterday, minus crossing the street to get my hair done and grocery shopping during which I put nearly all my weight on the shopping cart.  But today I haven't left the apartment at all, just crossed the room a couple times, did dishes, made French toast.  And each time I get up off the chair I get a reminder that I shouldn't.  My right foot forgives, especially if I put the weight back on the heel and avoid the ball of the foot.  My left foot not only hurts for minutes afterwards but radiates that pain up its leg.  I have clearly and truly fucked up my feet this time.

Now to make a little rice and watch Supernatural before I go to bed.  Not enough ambition to fix the brightness on the TV, or probably not enough, so it will just have to be dark.

This is the price I pay for having legs like a racehorse--injuries like a racehorse.
