I played nine holes of golf yesterday morning, with my current boss and my previous boss. (I invited the previous boss so he and the current boss could hang out and talk while I hit the ball a million times.) I got a 93 for nine holes, though I did get a 6 on one of the par 4 holes, which is what my previous boss also got. I'm moving from absolutely terrible to terrible. My current boss got an eagle (two under par) on a par 5 hole, which is very, very good.

Unfortunately, I overdid the golf this week, because when I got home last night, my right calf muscle (almost to my knee) was knotted up, and my right foot was swollen. This was incredibly, incredibly painful. I tried ice, heat, and ibuprofen, and it still hurt incredibly. I found one position where it didn't hurt (sitting on the side of the bed with just my right lower leg dangling over the side), and about every twenty minutes I had to sit like that so burning hot needles wouldn't jab my ankle. Finally, towards morning, the time period between when my leg would be in agony kept getting longer and longer, so I got a little bit of sleep. Then

learnteach came over and brought me a much better ice pack, a heating pad, and a new bottle of ibuprofen, so I'm feeling much better. I still can barely walk, but it hurts a lot less. I'm not even going to try driving.

Somehow I don't think I'll be doing much golfing this week.
