Then why does it feel like Thursday? Actually, I'm glad it is Wednesday, because I have a lot to do before Friday and am glad to be surprised with the extra day.
So, my laptop is returned home all safe and sound. Apparently my spyware and anti-virus programs were not doing their jobs and that was the root of all my problems. I have to say, that while I am happy this was a relatively inexpensive fix, I had almost gotten myself used to the idea that I would be getting a new computer. You know, on Erin's Mac the compose editor in Typepad could keep up with my typing without a problem. I loved that. I almost got used to that. Oh well, now I can use that money to get a chair or wool or cotton or something.
In other news. I am injured. Pulled up lame during a run yesterday, eight miles in. Yay. So far the PTs are not shaking their collective heads when I tell them I am running a half-marathon next month. My hip and thigh? I think they have other ideas when it comes to that, but as far as I'm concerned, at this moment, I am still planning on it. Things to be grateful for: Erin was around to get my phone call when I decided I could not make that last four miles home. Another: my phone waited to die until I made that call. It would have taken me forever to get home on my lame leg and it was getting dark.
Oh, the yawns are coming fast and furious, so I am off to bed. Maybe a mitten update tomorrow. I'd love it if I had a finished mitten to show, but at least I have given up on the problem area and in moving on have discovered some of my problems and have a plan to make the second mitten better than the first. I really want to knit a round before bed, but I have a feeling that would be a bad, bad idea. If I go now I might be able to get up early and knit a round or two before I head off to work. Yeah, as if that would happen.
Fourteen. That's all. Just fourteen.
I'm sorry you got hurt yesterday. I hope it clears up quickly.

That is so funny that you said that about the Mac being able to keep up with your typing. I get so frustrated because I type faster than my laptop can handle. I'm so glad to know I'm not alone! Whew.

Hope you slept well and got in a few rows of knitting. May your injury heal quickly! It was good that your call was answered and you could get off the leg.

That is a HUGE bummer. I hope this passes quickly. Do you have any thoughts on how this happened and how to prevent it in the future?

You have had more than your far share of injuries and such. Rest well and train slowly.

OUCH. Icing? Resting? Ha. Not you. I hope it clears up quickly.
