Yesterday was day +34.
... at least when you are indoors.
A lovely day - lots of RoR programming, writing tests and relaxing. My leg/hip has been sore for two days in a row, as we woke up to a bit of a blizzard this AM. I'm becoming a bit like the old-timers who can tell when the whether is going to change because their Lumbago is acting up :).
I'm a bit frustrated that I haven't been able to catch up on the daily blog here. I think this makes three days in a row that I start off with the "Yesterday" disclaimer. Perhaps tomorrow.

Belated Christmas
Day +26.
Today we had the oldest daughter and family over for Christmas. Very nice, with Tacos!
Unfortunately, some indigestion has ensued.
I've also missed two exercise days and my left leg is really starting to hurt. The strange thing though, is that it is the lower part of the leg that is painful, rather like shin splints.

Yesterday was day +20.
The strangest thing happened to me at the new year's eve party. Part way though the night, I started experiencing an overwhelming sadness. Each stranger at the club seemed to just accentuate it, as did looking at people while dancing.
In my past, I've had times when I have experience "free-floating anxiety", but this is the first time I can recall having "free-floating sadness".
I woke up just feeling like I had a hangover. I thought not drinking was supposed to be a cure for that ailment :). Obviously, eating a large rich meal and staying up to 2 in the morning allows you to have those again. Oh yay.
We had a nice visit with my brother and his wife, hanging some of Marie's paintings and chatting about the upcoming year.
Finally, I found that a night of dancing and an hour of vacuuming do not make my hip a happy camper.

A Tough Day For The Leg
Day +17.
I find it quite amazing that after 54 years or so of walking with my feet pointed out that retraining myself to keep them straight is happening so quickly. For the past two days, I have been straight with every spot check.
Not so amazing is the amount of physical discomfort it is giving me — on both legs. Ice and Arnica rub again today and both legs are still stiff, with the left one (my longstanding problem) being painful. I still managed to do a 30 minute/3 point walk today.

I Wrote a Server
Day +15.
Today, I managed to set up the LQPL server to accept TCP connections and to assemble and load compiled LQPL programs. Part of the productivity was due to the greatness of Haskell, part due to being able to use some code from Real World Haskell.
I'm beginning to think my January goals for LQPL are a bit too easy. If so, I'll just do more on inverse products.
Work was non-remarkable. Processed about 90 emails. Had a nice lunch with a friend.
Noticed that carrying items in my pockets just spikes my hip pain immensely. Back to wearing the fanny pack again. We did a 20 minute walk tonight, which was really nice. I'm using an Arnica rub now, and ice, to see how well that can manage the pain. So far, so good, no Tylenol needed.
