dr. grade today A+...

trip to the primary to get her to auth my ortho visit. she wrote me a dr note to visit the mavs knee doctor, ordered my mri, got me some vicodin for night time pain and tramadol for daytime, AND refilled my skin cream. not only that i got her to signup for my work website (filesanywhere DOT com and you should too) :^D

so i would say as good as i could hope for. knee is tolerable just annoying but after 4 knee surgeries and looks like i'm headed for 5th, i am VERY used to this.

fish bowl knee...

the knee is outta control at this point. i have to see my primary on saturday to get an appt. with a specialist. 2 options. first i will try to see a "return to sports" doctor if the waits not too long then that's the primary. the less sexy pic is the old doctor that has cut me up 4 times. who i have gone to because he gets me in the OR fast. from consult to surgery with him is 2 weeks. average is a month for everyone else.

i will use this as a spring board to weight loss and getting back to tri's. i have always seen my greatest success post surgery. i will not be stopped.

dominator just swam laps... oh yes he did...

first time since 5/08 i swam laps. a bit outta practice but i gotta start somewhere. my knee still has water in it. i don't want to go to the ortho but from reading online taking advil and aleve for a week should reduce the swelling if it doesn't then it means the ortho needs to have a look. praying i don't have to see him cuz that means mri's and surgery neither of which i want to pay for.

my swim bag was soaked in motor oil after a loose bottle got free in the trunk so i ordered a new one. plan on swimming at lunch cuz if surgery isn't needed on the knee th damage was caused solely from the elliptical. very bummed over knee but thankful there is absolutely no pain.

just a lil bit...

i am starting to see a lil bit of success. my clothes are feeling a little bit looser. one problem is my knees don't seem to like the elliptical. but i will keep going albeit slowly. the lunchtime workout is really a good habit i am trying to stay on top of. once i shake this cold i will start adding in the weights again.

defy imagination...

let me paint the scene. i get the gym at lunch and i see this white bentley with a handi-plate parked in front in a handi-space. i think "da hell is a bentley with a handi-plate doing at a gym" then i step inside. swipe the ol card and head to the ol elliptical as i do. whilst there my eyes fall upon this tall tan chick with curly hair down to the hips and a body sir-mix-a-lot could not lie about (if you know what i mean) i mean if i could cobble together the image of a perfect body from various famous people she had it.

enter this p-diddy wanna be wearing platinum chains versace shades (inside the gym while working out) and ridiculous roided up muscles. guess who the chick and the car belong to?

worst part of my vision of female perfection was the "ghetto talk" that came out of that chicks mouth. envision water on popcorn. white chicks that sound like gangsta rappers are a HUGE turn off. i don't like that gangsta rappers talk like that either. my ex used to do that shit when she "gotta round her peeps" and man how i would kringe.

moral of the story. i'd much rather be with EXACTLY like karen phillipini from the office (rashida jones) than any other.

even chicks with other worldly bodily dimensions. for the life of me i don't know how you can be so thin and toned yet have an ass that looks like you're smuggling christmas hams!!! but hey i appreciate the beautiful diversity God created.
