after three weeks

After three weeks, my right shoulder joint still feels it's catching into something, but not nearly as often as it used to. So, today, after a long absence, I went back to the gym and made it thru my routine. Mind you, with lower weights on the machines that involve my arms. I was much relieved to feel no protest from my shoulder - except when I did free weights, which I think is what threw my joint out of whack. I'll work my way back to the old levels for the other exercises. Slowly. I am not going to mess with the healing process.

precision, not obsession

When Sue and I go to the movies, we always sit halfway up in the theater's right half, with an aisle seat for Sue. When I go by myself, I sit halfway up, in the middle of the row, and I am embarassed to admit that, when I went to see "Despicable Me 2", I counted the number of seats on each side, to make sure I was indeed in the middle.

So that's how my tuckerized counterpart died in James S. A. Corey's "Abaddon's Gate".
