...what? That was never on my radar. That's a chronic injury, so getting it from a single swing is very bizarre. Anti-inflammatories will help. Hope he gave you some of those. Best treatment is just rest for that...or coritsone.

I played ultimately frisbee today with little consequence. Of course, that's mostly wrists, so that probably had something to do with it.

And it apparently isn't always chronic, but there's a chance it could get there, so I have to be a little careful with it.

It isn't, but acute bursitis in the shoulder? Pretty rare. Acute bursitis in the elbow? Sure, you fall on it. In the shoulder? Interesting.

NHL scheduling. I wish they'd do it one of two ways to start the season:
1) Do it like the NHL and have only the reigning champs play a home game so that they can do their banner raising and have the spotlight all to themselves for the night. Or
2) Have every team play on opening night.

It's so dumb to me that there's only 4 games on opening night.

When a player dives both guys get sent to the box...ridiculous. Punish the prick for diving and it would stop!

Family members who hate the President so much that they actually believe they're intentionally lying about Ebola and how it's contracted.

NCDOT decided they needed to replace a small bridge no one of the central pieces of my commute. It was supposed to take approximately 3 months, from mid-June to mid-September. They just announced that it's a month behind schedule.

How do you get a month behind schedule on only a 3 month project?!?!?

People who quote their own posts...err...NCDOT once again.

The project is now nearly two months behind schedule.

We were just about promised flying cars by now. Where are our flying cars?

Tampa Bay's Steven Stamkos erased his slow start to the season with a natural hat trick against Montreal.

Ummm, no. Gallagher did score a goal in between.

I finally got through a week without injuring myself last week, after the previous two ending on shoulder bursitis and a concussion, respectively, and I finally felt good enough to start playing softball again this week, and my first game back, sliding into third base, I sprained my ankle. It's twice its normal size, woke me up four times last night because of the pain, and I can barely put any weight on it.

Frustrating.

The piss poor Government here at the once greatest nation in the world. And I don't just mean this President & Government. It has been atrocious for over a decade! These old farts & all the rest in office really teach us what greed & corruption is all about!!!! Also, the way this nation shoves it's big fucking nose into every countries business! Self appointed security guard of the world! What a fucking waste of tax-payers money, period!!!!! I'm starting to think that the rest of the world looks at USA to stand for Useless Selfish Assholes!!!

All in action right now. I got an ace wrap and a horseshoe pad from student health, a ziplock of ice and a pillow from home, and typing is very awkward at this weirdly angled position.
