Weekend of Weekendness
I pushed myself too hard on Thursday at work and, instead of the normal maybe one or one and half miles I walk at work daily between buildings, I ended up walking about four. I threw out my left knee and my right ankle. Ended up crashing out that night in a way I haven't since Korea's little incident. Though this one has lasted off and on three days, it's far better than that event, too. I didn't push myself as hard as I did that day or three weeks following, but a little too hard still.
Friday was all touch and go, but I probably should have passed on the four-inch heels for evening plans, even if they were all snazzy and matched my outfit perfectly. Friday night was Earl's birthday night, with Jason and I had been in cahoots about for a few weeks previously. He drove down early from Austin.
Jason covered everyone for dinner at Zio's, while I covered for everyone at "Star Wars and Other Space Odyssey's" performed by the San Antonio Symphony. The latter was a blast. If the place was far more crowded than ever given the subject matter. We all giggled and named things through the Star Trek piece, and there was a parade of costumed Star Wars people through the last three pieces in the second half.
Saturday was rather a lot spent either laying down, sitting very carefully or not bending. I couldn't bend my knees for long all morning while laying down on my bed even. Heels + All The Joints Bad Right Now = Bad Plan, Amanda. So there was tv, and then was very few errands and a meal out with Earl so long as he drove and let me walk very slowly.
Let's see other end of the week importance’s up until then. I caught up on all my tv, enough to start trying to work on watching the last few seasons of Big Love again instead of just wistful thinking at it. I finally read more than one book in the last week while at work again.
Sunday and I are eying each other with possibility now. There's an outing for a King Lear performance & Tea House I might be able to make. I need to do birthday swag post, as reminded by two different people recently. Maybe more Big Love, maybe an MM oom, and taking it very, very, very easy on myself. We're in flats until this all settles out.
All my love and the hope that you're all well.
