andrew_jorgensenMy doctor could not find any structural problems with my knees; he diagnosed them as suffering from "overuse." I am now to warm my knees before exercising and ice them after.
Cooling my knees down should not be a problem if the cold snap continues (I think it has already passed): I was able to get out skiing last night for an hour and thirteen minutes of moonlit cross-country. I hit a few patches of soggy, sticky snow, and my left ski was grabby by the end, but the pseudo-spirituality of crossing the empty fields (well, golf course) illuminated only by moonshine made it worthwhile. This morning my technique was better and the night's freeze prevented the snow from adhering to my skis. I was out for only fifty minutes though. Tonight, eager to test my now-warmed knees I walked for thirty-five minutes. I am unsure whether but hopeful that my joints will be loose enough that I can test out new shoes before Friday's departure.
Happy Birthday to me. I might mark it with some light stretching.

Date: 2006-02-14 07:14 pm (UTC)Yeah, it's my first tag -- I have mixed feelings about the things. I like the categorizing, dislike the aesthetics. But I think "desperate cries for attention" will probably be a well-worn tag in the future.

Date: 2006-02-14 08:52 pm (UTC)Poor Refried Paper, which I always liked better than anything I could design on my own. Actually, a while back, I found someone's kludged up S2 approximation of Refried Paper and switched to that -- not so that I could utilize tags (which may now be fully supported in S1 no matter what I said earlier) but because I could finally get the icon for each individual post to show up on my journal.
Yes, the never-write-anything-but-communicate-entirely-through-icons appealed deeply.
