Ok, I've got some good news.
My hip is much better. I'm actually thinking about doing a light running workout tomorrow to see if the severe pain returns. If it does, I'm on the bike for the next few weeks, without a doubt. I'm thinking of a light 2 mile tempo run on the track.
If I can just do light workouts everyday for a couple months, I might be able to avoid the MRI machine (wow...2 tesla...mmmm...) and I might be able to avoid stress fractures again. I talked to coach...would like for me to get to a base of 45 miles/week by the end of the summer. Its attainable, and I might be able to go as high as 55 or 60 if I start training early in the spring.
I took the DiffEQ final a few hours ago...man, it was just as much fun as getting kicked in the nuts with a steel toed boot (and unfortunately, some people know how much fun that is...). It went alright, though. I think I passed...even if it was by the skin of my teeth.
Tomorrow has my Lin Alg exam at 2 and my Statics exam at 1. I'm SOOOO looking forward to them (if you couldn't tell, I was being sarcastic).
As of 3PM of October 16th, 2003, I am a free man (for the next 10 days, that is).
Friday we're having a celebration at my apartment (no alcohol, preferably), so that should be fun.
Yes, I'm tired. Yes, I'm overstressed. Yes, I need sleep. Yes, I need food. Yes, I need a drink (not alcohol, mind you).
Three quotes of the day:
"Malo mori quam foedari."--Family motto
"Fear benefits the living nothing" -- The 13th Warrior
"Forever your power and strength stay with me"-- Dropkick Murphy's ("Forever")
Good night all, stay safe.
