Injured

[pen_grunt]

Man. I managed to strain BOTH my groin muscles running yesterday and Monday. How does this even work? Dammit, I bought a fancy belly-support belt to prevent things like that from happening. If I'm in the same position for too long, I can barely move and walking is a painful adventure!

Doctor, at the appointment today: Um. Maybe you shouldn't run so hard.

I don't think she understands. I'm running 3 miles instead of almost 7! And at wuss-speed. That IS not so hard.

But apparently these things happen when you're carrying a bowling ball equivalent front-loaded in your abdomen. Aaaand all your joints and ligaments start to go, "Fuck this, hold your own damned self together."

Maybe I'll just walk some instead.

Also, D has his very first migraine ever. I don't quite know how to help him. I told him to drink some caffeine.

We are a sorry, sorry, injured household tonight.

Caffeine and four Advil. <3


Also, I have no idea how you are still running. I just wanted to lay on the couch all the time.

He is under-Adviled by two, but napping now. I feel bad for him.

I dunno. With the running I just sort of want to see how long I can. Which is, apparently, until last week. I don't really have a thing about it except that it's a habit.

I think the dr means maybe stop running. ;)

Maaaaaybe.... :)

She was actually okay with it, but was like: "Listen to your body, dipshit."

It's so cool you're still running. C's co-worker is due next week and is still cycling to work.

If she still *can* she totally should. I can't imagine cycling in MN in the winter and feeling safe about it. But I don't really bike much pregnant or no.
