… like shooting stars |
I haven’t slept yet. I tried. I really did. But by almost 6am it was very clear that sleep was not coming. And since I had to be up by 7:30am, there was really no point in trying any longer. I have plans today! Off to NYC for a day of geekery with Kim, Dani, and Joe.
So I decided to shower, get dressed, and just be ready for the day by 7:30 instead of starting then. I showered, primped, dressed, and… my knee decided that it doesn’t want to play today. And this is a very new type of pain. I couldn’t put weight on it without the front/kneecap area feeling like I was having huge needles jammed through it. Um. Ow? And quite random. I mean, I have knee issues. I have bad knee issues. But mine are with the inside and rear of the knee with it swelling to the point where I cannot bend my knee. This? No warning, nothing to bring it on.
I decided to put my Shape Ups on since the points of contact between my feet and the ground are different when I wear those. I walked down the road to 7-11 to pick up some water and energy shots (and a light breakfast of apple slices and peanut butter! yum!), making sure to pay attention to my knee. With the shoes, I noticed an immediate difference in that I could at least put weight on my right leg without pain. I am very, very leery though. I have a feeling I am going to be in a tremendous amount of pain by the afternoon and even worse tonight, peaking tomorrow. I should probably bow out of the day and just take the day to rest my knee but, dammit, I’ve been home all week and I’ve been looking forward to today. I go back to work tomorrow to finish out the month (my last day is July 1st instead of June 30th) and there is no reason why I cannot just muddle my way through it.
But I just know that I am making a mistake LOL
Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky
are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now.
(wish right now, wish right now)
