Today was the day for removing the dressing from my knee. It looks good. Well, no, it doesn’t look good; I take that back. What I mean is it looks like it is healing normally, and is not inflamed or open anywhere. I knew it… Read More

Are there any songs about knee problems?
Celebrating my return home after my knee misadventure, I thought I ought to post some appropriate music. I couldn’t think of any songs about torn tendons, though. The closest I can come up with is Arthritis Blues performed by Ramblin’ Jack.

Home from the hospital! I’ve got a dressing around the knee, which stays on for a couple days, and a knee brace to keep the joint in place – and plenty of healing and physio ahead. Thanks everyone for the love and support! Also a… Read More
Knee update
It seems I have torn my quadriceps tendon, and will need a repair job on it. This qualifies for emergency surgery, which is a good thing, since elective surgeries are on hold for who knows how long. I go in early tomorrow morning, and if… Read More

Battlestar Galactica goes to Deadwood
We just gobbled up the first season of Westworld. This is a show I’ve been reluctant to watch, simply because I figured that Yul Brenner flick from the early 70s did the job, and I’m not generally a big fan of do-overs. There is also… Read More
Go with Vox
I played 8 online games of Go with Vox last evening, and continued my winning ways, victorious in 6 of them. A win is a win, regardless of by how much, but I should say that 2 of my wins were by slim margins, just… Read More
