Losing Weight; Finding Men: I No Longer Love

I No Longer Love

I no longer love my BFF gym. And I don't quite know why. Maybe it is burnout. Maybe I am finally bored. Wish I could do the other cardio machines. Maybe I'll feel better when I get my knee sorted out.

So, yes, it is still bothering me. I've decided I'm going to buy a brace for my left knee. Of course, what kind of support brace, I have no idea. Will have to do some research. The best I can describe the sensation is that it feels like "the hinge" of the joint is stuck and needs to crack. Yet, when it does crack, it doesn't feel better. If I had to give a location, I would say it is under or behind the knee cap. I'll have to diagnose myself later.

Today is my Friday. Tomorrow is a day of remembrance for me and Friday is a forced PTO day. The moon is full, and I'm feeling like I need to put some emotional boundaries up so I don't absorb all the sorrow around me like a sponge. I don't want to spend the next 4 days in bed (or in hammock) completely.

Oh and just to state the obvious, no megamil winner here.

I'm sending you hugs as you remember your beautiful friend Asena.; July 8, 2009 at 12:33 PM

Kimberly said...: Um, I sprained/twisted/royally fucked up my ankle 3 weeks ago. Thas right...it is what us talented folk do...we hurt ourselves for the benefit of others. So, I didn't abandon my gym on purpose, I had to due to injury and I sure am missing it.

Hope you heal soon & I know if you win the megamil...all your aches and pains will disappear.; July 8, 2009 at 2:34 PM

Just a Lovable Party Girl

Sagittarius is born to travel the world and move upwards and outwards. Naturally gregarious, they love the idea of meeting different people and understanding foreign cultures. There is also a desire to broaden the mind too, with the possibility of many Sagittarians being lifelong students. Their outlook is generally optimistic and there is a distinct lack of concern over the smaller, practical details. A great sense of humor and a lack of petty mindedness are Sagittarian qualities too. Sagittarius is open -- open-minded, open-hearted and generous, up to a point. They like to get value and will not be quite so impulsive with their cash but they do have a natural ability to get on with people from many varied walks of life. They have an innate sense of wanting to help others and give them a hand up the ladder and can be wonderful and exciting companions. Expect an honest answer when you ask a question and maybe some long philosophic discussions into the night. Jovial, optimistic, versatile, open-minded, philosophical, sincere, frank, visionary.
