At the end of the year, I like to read what I blogged about last year. This is what I came up with: The best things that happened in 2007: I started swimming on a team, and watched my abilities improve precipitously. I joined Facebook, where I connected with all kinds of people from my [...]

Untitled Post
I’m intentionally burying this post on a Saturday afternoon in the middle of the holidays, because I don’t really want to write it. I just thought that I should update those of you who are interested enough to subscribe to the blog via RSS or those of you who go back to read back dated [...]

Gotta write
Damn, as soon as you promise not to write, there’s stuff to write about. Forget that I said that, okay? What I really meant was that if I don’t write, don’t worry, it’s because I’m busy making pumpkin pies and wrapping presents and that junk. I must make note of the fact that today is [...]

All is calm, all is bright
I’m going to take a little blog holiday for a few days. I can feel the internet quieting down, and I’m joining in. I’ll still be reading, but I have some non-bloggable stuff going on right now, and I’m just going to post that to The Anonymous Tannenbaum, aka my personal journal that only gets [...]

Within moments of breezing into the room and shaking my hand while looking at the x-rays, he declared me safe to put weight on my foot. Here’s [...]

In a rug
Thursday was a snow day over here in the Hudson Valley. I woke up early to shower and get ready for work. I’m down to only 45 minutes for showering! W00t! I’m smart, so I decided not to drive myself to work, because even at 5 minutes, my drive home is mostly uphill, and I [...]

Don’t lose your marbles
My computer’s still broken, so I’m writing this quick before work gets busy. Firstly, I’m sorry that you all found my flashback story to be painful! I was surprised, because it’s my next installment of the story where the pain really started. It wasn’t until I hit the ground and my brain processed what had [...]

Flashback
I have a physical therapy appointment tomorrow where I will learn to point and flex my foot. Big stuff. I was thinking about it, and it occurred to me that I never recounted the story. If you’ve been reading the blog through all of NaBloPoMo, you know that I broke my ankle and my lower [...]
