Have a zoom meeting with the pdoc in 15 minutes. I hope I don't crash emotionally like I always seem to do afterwards. It's like for a brief 15 minutes someone irl cares about me. Although his office was to get a hold of me 6 months ago and schedule a follow-up and it never happened until I enquired to find out if I was on the 1 year plan and the office said, no you were supposed to see him 6 months ago but I know that they never called. It's okay, I have been relatively ok for a while.
But not looking forward to the crash.

Damn, that sucks! If you have a fever, please take care to hydrate, in addition to the paracetamol.
Speaking of paracetamol, I quite prefer this term to the American name of Acetaminophen. The former rolls off the tongue in a satisfying way. Also I imagine that if I needed to reference the drug in the song, “paracetamol” would be easier to work into other lyrics. Jack White, of the rock band named The White Stripes did use “acetaminophen” in a song, but honestly he’s a world class songwriter. As a musician, I know how hard it is to make it look easy, and just from a music theory perspective, the songs are elegant.
Gosh more tangents. I even took my meds today. Nonetheless I’m sending wishes for your speedy recovery.

Intrusive thoughts are out of control rn. I keep thinking that I absolutely need to hurt myself. I can’t mention the content because of the no methods rule. I noticed that the stories around the upsets are fluid. If I talk down one, others move in.
The good news is that I played the world’s largest MMORPG called “outside.” The stories and the NPCs mostly suck, but the graphics can’t be beat! 🤣. I got a 25 minute walk in, so around 1.25 miles. My pace in Colorado was 4 mph before I moved to Arizona. I am much slower after spending 12 years at sea level, and I’m 14 years older. It’s uncomfortable, but motivating, to get a realistic measure of my cardiovascular (un) fitness.
The MMORPG joke is not mine. It’s funny because it’s true, so I borrowed it.

I'm tired and a bit deflated. Walked home from the station, leg and hip felt OK, but tonight is the first night since Halloween 2024 that I haven't been to my new running group - because basically I can't run at the moment. Or need to be very careful for a bit to avoid complicating my back and knee injuries. I was always worried about the entanglement of my social life with my fitness because losing an injury meant I'd lose both - and here I am. Feel sad they will all be out running now, and I've gone from running 10 miles up hills and all terrains to having to be content with a 1.5 mile walk home without something falling apart...
Thanks for caring @seabird . We talked about my impending retirement and then I had a discussion with him about HIS impending retirement because after 15 years I am scared shitless about finding another pdoc and he is about my age. He has avoided the conversation in the past but he addressed it directly and admitted he has been flirting with the idea but no action yet.
I don't know why I have crashed in the past. But today mostly because I have had friends reach out to me this week and I had a second commitment that I had to be on top of my game right after I guess I was doing good. A least a lot better than earlier this week.
Thanks again.

I'd probably end up making it worse if I went off YouTube. When I first did it I found this online diagnostic thing saying try these movements is it painful etc? Had YouTube embedded. Was very thorough. When I got to the end it said enter credit card details for diagnosis and advice 😂
I can see a physio if need be but have found them hit and miss. I always seem to heal with rest and managed mobility. Think I just went a bit mad with my last long run and it caught up with me as hadn't had any problems before that. I will try a little jog on Sunday and see how it responds as the walk hasn't aggravated things. Hope you are doing better today.
