I can now, while sitting on the sofa with my feet on the floor, lift my left foot off the ground by a whole two inches, w00ts! ^_^ I've been doing that in lots of ten reps, holding for three seconds each time, throughout today. It's quite painful, but feels amazing to be able to actually work the muscles in my knee =] Y'know that acid-in-the-muscle, glorious feeling when you know you've pushed your muscles far enough to make a difference, but not far enough to do damage? Yeah =]
Meanwhile, since doing so little during the day inevitably results in an inability to sleep, I've been watching a whole lot of Scrubs and House, lately =] It's occurred to me that there's probably something significant about my love of (good) medical shows -- even to the point where I prefer Silent Witness to Morse -- but meh ^_^
I'm still hanging out for House to do an episode about EDS -- I mean, the possibilities are almost endless, even so far as the FMS/EDS cross-overs -- but at the same time, I'm worried they'll get their facts wrong and end up misrepresenting EDS =/ That would sort of defeat the point in me wanting them to cover it -- that point being to raise awareness. But I suppose, either way, so long as they get the basic symptoms right...?
Meanwhile, I'm no longer the only one going stir crazy. Pippa (our little Brussels Griffon) isn't getting her usual two walks a day at the moment, because of the weather. She really does need them, too -- she has an insane amount of energy, haha. Every time a cat moves, at the moment (we have two), she leaps off the sofa barking. The funny part is that she fails at running across tiles and just sort of skitters until she lands on her butt and sort of slides across the floor, still barking XD
I know they say not to mock the afflicted, but I am the afflicted, so =P Hehe.
