I tweaked my knee yesterday and I can barely walk today. I'm not supposed to be walking so I guess that is not so bad, just frustrating.

I have been trying to set up the appointment to be fingerprinted and cannot get a call back.

I have also been arguing with my wife all day. She is helping me re: advising me about treatments for my parents. She is also confirming that I was the worst husband who ever walked the Earth.

Some of what she points out is true, however, much of it is greatly exagerrated or ignores he contributions to the situation. Still, I can learn from the valid points if there is a next time with someone new.

Take everything she says with a grain of salt ... as it will be colored with her "issues". Look at it analytically for sure, but don't beat yourself up over what she says.

What's going on with the 'rents?

My hubby got fingerprinted at the local police department for his job. Do you have to go somewhere special?

Bummer on the knee ... does ice help?

I have to go on base and I have to make a special appointment.

I understand that things are shaded, but I am considering the valid criticism to try to learn from it.

I did this too. Helped me to make a much better choice the next time.

Today I am going to Letterkenney to get fingerprinted and computer acces.

My leg is so screwed up that I won't be able to walk there, so they will have to put up with me in a wheelchair.

Still, I am excited.

Maybe if I married a guy next time we'd agree on more things?

Not. Guys are surprisingly stubborn & sensitive. They require more than just sweet-talk to be back right with the world.

I was laid up with my knee for a few days. Surprisingly, my wound is now healing rapidly since I got the S & M boot. I suppose it is rapid if you are a PT, but it is damn slow to everyone else but turtles and snails.

Letterkenney gave me a whole batch of new paperwork to complete before my start date, whenever that is.

My brother's dog is coming for a visit while his family goes on vacation. I turned him into a lap dog last time. We'll see if the lesson stuck.

Workout:

Floor Press One Arm: 35 lb kb 4 x 10
Crunches 3 x 15 w/20 lb kb on chest
Reverse Crunches 3 x 15
Leg Lifts 3 x 12
Overhead Press: 4 x 12 x 20 lb kbs
Curls: 3 x 20 x 25 lb kbs
Tricep Extension: 3 x 10 x 20 lb kbs
Lat Pull: 3 x 12 x 39 lb bands anchored in door.

Fairly quick. Relatively brutal and required me to move around some.

I am looking lustfully at the treadmill as well as Claire McCaskill both indicating some form of mental trauma.

Greg, enuff with the Clair McCaskill lust . . . now, get yerself out there and find some nice girl to practice your 'new' skills on.

I always wished I was a lesbian, I would be very content to live my life with the few girlfriends I have but alas my libido doesn't agree with me.

Anyhoo, before you know it you will be working and busy and no time to worry about ex's.

Actually, I'm doing pretty well. My world has gotten quite small, but I can see it expanding with new work and the eventual repair on my ankle. Then I may worry about a new woman or just enjoy voluntary solitude for a while.
