It's been a busy week, what can I say? My left foot has been in pain; went to doctor, got x-rays. It's not broken, it turns out. Neither are there bone spurs, nor are there the crystals that would indicate gout. So, even though it's not swollen the way one would expect with a sprain, it must be a sprain - how the hell did I sprain 2 toes without bruising them??? I can't remember doing anything. And at my age, a sprain takes even longer to heal than a broken bone, goody. So all I can do is wear protective shoes, apply ice on occasion, use painkillers to sleep, and - I'm quoting my ever-helpful medical provider here - "try not to walk into any furniture in your sleep."

I need a haircut.
I am looking forward to the extra hour of sleep this weekend. Also looking forward to the Texas Book Festival - with the bike, there's a decent chance of finding a parking space within a block of the grounds.
