21 March 2008 Hobbling in Hong Kong
Boy, if you can't walk, life is rough over here. I SMOKED my ankle 2 weeks ago playing hoops, and I am just now starting to walk normally with a brace. It bruised all the way up to the outside of my knee. I have really flat feet and the foot shown here was taped up HARD for 2 days prior to this picture. Travelling to China has been interesting with it, as well. Getting old is a beautiful thing on many levels, but this level has its issues! Walking was my primary source of exercise here in HK; to say I am a bit restless these days would be an understatement! If anyone knows a good Dr. to go to with access to an MRI machine over here (I just can't bring myself to go to the emergency room over here; it's not an emergency!), say the word. I got my Hong Kong ID card last week, which greases the medical care skids over here. It is getting better, but seems to be squeaking at me to get it looked at. Maybe that is my wife :).

You're the first guy I've known to have 'cankles'. You know, your ankle is SO puffy there is no distinction between it and your calf. Only pregnant women are afflicted with it.
Welcome to my world. :-)
