Random Gloats: And ... loving it

Sorry, no photos. (Or maybe that should read: You're welcome, no photos? Onwards.)

My Facebook update read, "Less blood, less pain, even more fun. Don't care that our winning streak ended at one game." but I fear I was a little early in declaring "less pain".

It's now the morning after and — mercy! — I hurt. The running has made a difference; yesterday at soccer I ran harder and spent less time on the bench, but it wasn't too long after the game that I started to hurt just as badly as I had after the first game. And this morning-after is just as bad as the first one was, last week.

I am not complaining, mind you. I've been very sedentary for a long time, so it's no surprise that getting active again is going to take time and a little pain. And, well, I'm not quite so young as I used to be. But we won't say anything about that.

In other news, my third tabloid came back from the printer, looking (dare I say it) very good indeed, and including an ad for my services. Among other projects this week (yes, there's a Doctor Who analysis coming), I intend to have proper Hire Me section for ed-rex.com up by the end of the week.
