“Your tail-light’s out, and, ah, you have no knees.”
Actually, it’s my headlight. I meant to get that taken care of last night, but I ran out of energy. I just don’t get much done in the evenings now – they’re so short. If I go out with friends, that takes care of the evening in one swoop, I go home and go to bed. And I really am having knee problems, I have been all week. Every time I go up a set of stairs is a bit painful, I don’t know what I did to myself but I’m ready for it to go away.
I miss getting home at 2 and 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Of course, I don’t miss staying at work until midnight, which is what gave me the early days the rest of the week, so I guess it all evens out.
It’s raining this morning, as it is over most of the mid-Atlantic states. I like it when it rains. Either a clear, sunny, warm, not too humid day, or a nice steady rain that means business but isn’t sheeting down in an effort to get people to build arks. None of this half-way gloom stuff.
Heading back to Salem tonight for the weekend. Thank goodness for audiobooks.
One thing that’s probably affecting your knees is the amount of time you’ve spent in the car recently. I’m always stiff in the knees after driving for a few hours, and I don’t have some of the problems you’ve had.
How’s your hip doing?
Re: joints
The hip’s doing really well. I noticed I was limping a bit the other night when I was really tired, but I’ve done that since the accident. I never seem to have any serious pain or flexibility issues with the hip – the Duke docs did a good job.
