Less of the whining...

Doctor's went quite well.
Went in, said OW, ANKLE, WRONG!
He checked notes and said "but the hospital said it was FINE and not painful", which rather surprised me since the last conversation I had with the consultant revolved around how it WAS still painful and the whole 'nerve damage' thing.

Then he checked ankle, which was helpfully all seized up. I tried to move it, no joy. HE tried to move it, still nothing. So he said "Hmm. No. That's not quite right." and is referring me to Musgrave for MOAR PHYSIO. Hurrah!

After that, I went and got on the horse. Walking walking fine. Decided to be Brave and attempt rising trot. This did not result in sudden PAIN so did some more. And a bit more. Aaaand a bit more. Then it did start being achy, so got off. Then it REALLY got sore.
But on the plus side, trotting (not necessarily correctly, weight in toes, not ankle, but still ;p), YAY!

Went home, took painkillers, went to Pilates, which was awkward cos ankle had now totally seized up again, so had to skip a few of the exercises. It did finally loosen up toward the end tho, which was a relief. Then home, mud, hot bath and bed before midnight - what a healthsome life!

This afternoon is the turn of the osteopath. Which is great because after yesterday, just about everything is on the stiff and achy side. Hmm back-cracking goodness.
Then home this evening for Family Fun Time and Cake, hurrah!

Ooh and Archaeology Conference Saturday (ie. huge piss-up sat. night) - are you or any of your minions attending _unhurt_?

Anyone got any wildly exciting plans for the weekend? Plans that do NOT including milking in any way, shape or form?

ETA Back from osteo! back all nicely cracked into place. Also, thesme_01 you will be very gratified to hear she basically said exactly what you did - that its' probably too early in the whole healing process to put ankle under the extra pressure of the heel lift, and it might be best to abandon it for a while.

People keep on mentioning that and it confuses me :(

WHERE IS IT FROM

I don't believe a childrens show could be that perverse!

What, like Captain Pugwash and Roger the Cabinboy was innocent? (Wasn't there Seaman Staines too?) Or the entire case of Rainbow sleeping together?

It's a line from the Mary Whitehouse Experience. One of the characters liked rather old milk.

Deadly! I'm Venkman though, so long as you know.

BAH.

um. okay, fine. winston's pretty cool, maybe i can be him?

(though, you know? i kind of love them all.)

i think it's from a 1990s student-popular standup comdey duo - the names of whom i forget! one of them had long hair. WHAT WERE THEY CALLED, HELLISON?

[lazy-hoor.livejournal.com]

I like how Winston just turned up and they gave him photon blasters without so much as a background check. Still, he seemed like a stand-up guy.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Teh cabin boy was actually called Jim, so that one is mostly urban myth alas ;p

[hellison.livejournal.com]

newman and baddiel wasn't it?

...

You want to MILK archaeologists??

You sick, sick freak.

[lazy-hoor.livejournal.com]

The Mary Whitehouse Experience. Newman (the sexy one), Baddiel (the speccy one), Punt (the Eric Idle look alike one) and Dennis (the other one). Dennis was a weird perv who used to go "Lovely! Milky milky!"

*points down*

in my head, winston is a vietnam vet and thus well equipped to handle dangerous photon stuff. but i don't know if that's canon...

anyway! janine could have run a check on him! maybe they did that before the interviews?

i used to, uh, lurk about in. er. real ghostbusters fandom. CARTOON GHOSTBUSTERS IN LOVE!!11!

the universe is stranger than you know!

Well, you are stranger than I thought!

I had quite a big crush on Bill Murray when I was young. Used to like older men called Bill. Bill Murray, Bill Shatner... Strange child, I was.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

i am? have you READ my journal???

[lazy-hoor.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, yes I have. But Real Ghostbusters pervery? That's a whole new level of wrongness.

[lazy-hoor.livejournal.com]

You can't be shocked by *anything* she says now, surely?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

i was young & easily led! then i found buffy and spike/xander (also spike/angel. and gunn/wesley. and spike/giles. and, er. wrongbadwrong giles/willow.) and things looked up.

p.s. avoid a-team fandom though, it is a scary place!

[adelpha.livejournal.com]

Jim the cabin boy? JIM THE CABIN BOY?!?

FLITH!

[being-here.livejournal.com]

I am chilling out and being full of thoughtfulness. No milking at all there.

[being-here.livejournal.com]

I am so tempted to go look for that now.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

there was never a sexy one. IMO. they were all ick!

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

OMG !!! A-TEAM!!!

OMG OMG! Right right right, see right:

Mr T drained the last of his ...'milk' in one long satisfying gulp.

In the background, the Face strained against the strappings that fixed him to the Unnatural Machine
