We were driving separately to that great theater on Sunset Blvd, the Arclight.<\/p>\n<p>Ever since then, my knee hasn&#8217;t felt right and it gives me trouble when it gets too much of a workout and when it gets not enough of a workout.<\/p>\n<p>I strained it doing yoyos in Alexander Technique this past week but don&#8217;t worry about me. I&#8217;m fine. I&#8217;m still 100% for blogging.<\/p>\n<p>I just need a little feminine attention.<\/p>\n<p>Bloggers blog. It&#8217;s blogging season. I&#8217;ll be on the field.<\/p>\n<p>I did this interview with JTA:<\/p>\n<p>Q. How&#8217;s the knee?<br \/>\nA. I&#8217;ll be fine. There&#8217;s nothing wrong with it.<\/p>\n<p>Q. How much pain are you in?<br \/>\nA. Not much.<\/p>\n<p>Q. Will it hobble you at all?<br \/>\nA. No. It will be 100 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Q. Is it a basketball-type deal where you rolled it?<br \/>\nA. It just takes a couple of days. I suspect it wll be back to normal at the end of the day today or tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>Q. Will you be careful with it in practice today?<br \/>\nA. We&#8217;ll see when I get there, but I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ll be fine. I was dropping back earlier and it felt good. I can do everything.<\/p>\n<p>Q. Would you even call it a sprain?<br \/>\nA. I don&#8217;t know.<\/p>\n<p>Q. You aren&#8217;t worried about it?<br \/>\nA. No, it&#8217;s fine. I wouldn&#8217;t suspect that it will have any bearing whatsoever on anything really.<\/p>\n<p>My left shoulder has felt compacted the past few months. Dunno what&#8217;s up with that. But I&#8217;m fine, really.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and some of my toes hurt. Where the nail meets the flesh, it&#8217;s a bit tender.<\/p>\n<p>The bottoms of my feet too are tender. I still have lingering plantar fascitis. But I&#8217;m totally ready to blog at the top of my game.<\/p>\n<p>Bring the popcorn!<\/p>\n<p>So, yes, I am among the Orthodox Jewish bloggers working today, getting ready to declare G-d King. I have giggling schoolgirls outside my gate cooing at me but my concentration is solely upon holy matters.<\/p>\n<p>I sustained some bruises while doing yoga at the hovel last night. It can become a full contact sport. One can&#8217;t be too careful when the kundalini starts rising. But I&#8217;m fine. I just need some feminine attention and I&#8217;ll be my old self in no time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I injured my right knee racing across Pico Blvd in 2002 after a first date with a girl at Milk n Honey.
