I'm going to New Hampshire soon and I wanted to work on
my hip ... hey, I'm not hiking Mt Washington, but I would like
to walk around.

So, got on the treadmill to get accustomed to walking again.
Slow, like 2mph for a few minutes. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
What the hell did I press?

Friggin thing started at maybe ... I don't know ... 100mph?
I am in so much pain, my hip isn't even bothering me. (laugh)
I took such a bad spill you wouldn't believe it. I have colors
on me I never saw before. As if I took on a pro boxer.

Lesson learned, don't stand on the thing (I know, it has a name)
when you start it. But hey, I don't feel my hip pain!

I think you need a license to operate those things!

I hope you recover before your trip.

I had to use one as part of physiotherapy after a back injury. I had
it cranked up to a pretty good speed. My problem was when I stopped
it. No one warned me about slowing down gradually.

Do you really think I have a colorful personality? I take that
as a compliment. I don't know, I think I'm a walking bore.
Can't help that, I try.

OB food: I went to Barnacle Bill's yesterday, Ron got the
New Zealand green mussels. I actually brought my own
Italian bread, how pathetic is that? It comes in a fabulous
garlic sauce that *begs* for Italian bread. What are they
thinking ... no garlic bread? I gotta bring my own bread???

Why would you want to "work on" your hip? Wait with the walking
around part until after you have the replacement hip in place and
walking will no longer prove to be painful.

Did a physician actually recommend that, or was it you own idea?

Poor you! As if you had not enough pain from your hip!

The Evil Treadmill, that's the name. I will email you with my
experiences when I had my hip replaced. Goody, I get to show my scar
to someone, or something like it. )

If you hurry up and tell me you are not interested, that's fine, too.
I am sort of kidding about the email, just to take your mind off the
tumble you took. Feel better, dear Nancy.

Sorry Kiddo... hope it feels better soon. Saves a trip to the tatoo

You'll post pictures, I hope.

Oh, lady! Why does this shit always happen to you? I know you don't want
to hear this, but I'd strongly consider seeing a doctor for some pain pills
until this improves.

Hang in there, sweetie!

ROFLMAO! I shouldn't laugh. You probably took a pretty good spill. I'm
just laughing at the way you expressed it. Hope you recovered quickly.

Nance, your stories are incomparable. You make me laugh all the time!
You're certainly no boar. Oh, you said, "bore," didn't you?

Please CC me on that if you do decide to do the e-mail thing. I think it
might alleviate some of Crash's anxiety. We would *love* to see your scar.

I agree.

At least Nancy uses her machine! (When its not trying to kill her )I
have known so many, many people that buy the latest-and-greatest
*fitness* gizmo, use it once or twice and then it gets put away in the
garage, closet, whatever, never to be seen again. How about all
those *infomercials* they keep having on TV about all these machines.
Every other day, there is a new one out that claims to be the best of
the best and nothing can beat it etc. They all claim that it replaces
"at least 6 pieces of equipment in a gym". Well, if you buy all of
them, you WILL have your own gym!

Thanks, darlin. Actually it didn't happen to me, I made a stupid
mistake. It's dark where the treadmill is (broken track lights) and
I just kept hitting buttens. Hello, stand on the side rails you don't
stand on the rubber runner. All my fault.

You could have laughed at me lying on the moving runner yelling
HELP!

Heh, you see Dave Barry? He said, when you look at exercise stuff
in the store, think how it will look in your driveway next spring at
you're garage sale. Made me laugh.

At any rate, I'm tired of being stuck in the house because I don't know
what will happen if I do my usual 4mph walk. By myself. I gotta get
better.
