I'm so sorry thing didn't work out in the romance department.
Give me Revelation indeed...I could use some myself.
As someone once said "something will come up".

Going for a star, hey? Is it going to be a gold one?

Sorry NBC...heartbreaks suck. Confused

I wish you the best of luck in the shield to star endeavor! Where are you at again? I might need you to save me someday! Smile

Thank you for all your kind words. I look at this change of season as being refined. Like a big chunk of metal in a really hot fire.

Love that song--"Refiner's Fire"....

I'm sorry to hear your news NBC Sad

That kind of thing is always tough.

Hoping that things improve in the work situation though.

Keep that little sliver of hope NBC, there is a girl out there somewhere on this big o' rock that is destined to be yours. We are here to be your support.

Indeed. Sometimes you have to kiss a lot of frogs to meet your princess or prince. Hang in there.

Change of season...<sigh>...

My recreational activities have always been such that being physically fit(aerobic and anaerobic) is a must to reduce the risk of serious injury. So physical activity to increase/maintain strength and stamina long ago became a flow activity for me. An intrinsic part of a life well lived so to speak. Running is a huge part of my program...I love it. At least it was until last week. Long story short, I've been diagnosed with degenerative osteoarthritis in my knee(the one with pins and screws in it).

Orthoguy: Your running days are over.

Me: But but but...what if I were to blahblahblahblah?

Orthoguy: Sure, you can do that and still run. But then you'd need a full knee replacement before you're 50. You need to go to the next level.

Me: The next level? Is that some diplomatic euphemism for I'm too old and beat up to run, so now I have to give up what I love and start swimming or (heaven forbid)become a pushbike guy?

Orthoguy: Yes

Fook... Sad

You can't just walk? That would be less wearing on your knees. And you can still enjoy the outdoors... just more slowly. Smile

Get ya a bicycle...that's a great, low impact aerobic activity. I've got OA in both knees (aggrivated by bi-lat ACL reconstruction/pins/screws/etc) as well...it sucks. Biking is about the only thing that doesn't hurt. Those clipless pedals are great for aligning your knee in the least-resistant or least-painful way.
