Update on my hip: not good...not good at all...pretty shitty condition. Even going into a jog puts me in so much pain that I can hardly stand, let alone walk. I might get an MRI to make sure I didn't get a stress fracture this time around for real, because it certainly feels like it at times.

I'm not screwing around with my hip by attempting to run on it--the pain is right in the joint. I may not be the most intelligent person around, but I'm not risking it, not my hip.

Do you know what it feels like to be part of a team, work your ass off for it, but then find out that you can no longer contribute or even stick around with them much? Its a horrible feeling. Practice was a big social aspect of my day (well, pretty much the only social aspect, seeing that for four weeks I was completely swamped with work). I dunno, I guess its something like being in combat with your unit, and you get wounded, and you're sent back to the hospital and have to go home for the war, except the feeling isn't even CLOSE to what that would be.

On a related note--RED SOX KICK ASS!!! Defeated the Oakland A's 4-3. There were riots in Worcester, apparently. No first hand reports though, so I'm not sure how true it is. All I know is that the noise was damn loud outside.
