My shoulder hurts-- which hasn't been the case since 2019/2020 . . . I aggravated my shoulder trying to hit a topspin one-handed backhand in 2019 and when I finally got an MRI in early 2020, I learned that my right shoulder has some arthritis, some bone cysts, and some swelling . . . not the worst case scenario-- but these elements have gotten organized once again and are making a team effort to make my shoulder sore and swollen and so it's hard to make a right-handed lay-up or hit an overhead smash in tennis and pickleball-- and throwing a football a good distance is out of the question-- but I'm taking naproxen, like the doctor said, and it's starting to work-- and I'm also recovering from a calf strain-- and this is another injury resurfacing from 2020 . . . I hurt it playing indoor soccer and though I played indoor soccer this weekend, I could still feel it a bit, so I stopped after an hour . . . and I guess this is just how it's going to be-- the same injuries are going to resurface when I push my body too much and they will always be there, lingering in the background, and I'll also accumulate new injuries . . . and then I'll get some kind of illness or disease and croak (and hopefully, I will eloquently document it all for your reading displeasure).
my knee is haunted by the ghost of a dirty slide tackle from 2020. bad year for body parts.
ReplyDeleteMy groin is haunted by the ghost of an old girlfriend and an old relationship from 1990.
ReplyDeleteI saw her in the sandwich shop the other day, and she wasn't looking so hot. But my groin probably looks worse.
we've got a strict no slide tackling rule in our pick-up game, for obvious reasons.
ReplyDeleteand i wonder what your old girlfriend thought of your new look . . .
I gotta figure she loves it
