Ouch.

The huge blister on my righ arch is not healing very quickly. I had to do some minor surgery on it last night because it kept filling up with fluid even after I drained it. Now I have Neosporin and a giant gauze bandage on it... trying to keep it somewhat elevated by putting it up onto my old desktop computer, which fortunately was still under my desk from 2.5 years ago when I got the laptop.

The worst thing is that I can't run in this condition. I can't even wear my running shoes, because I can't have anything rubbing on the arch... fortunately my work shoes don't touch that area... don't think I could hobble around here barefoot like I do at home.

I am noticing the effects of not running, though... especially coming back from such a long time off, my eyes aren't used to staring at the computer all day, and I keep getting tension headaches. I need my stress relief back! Amazing that I'm complaining about not being able to excercise, huh? :)
