Ow.

So apparently my neck has taken over for my ankles in the fuck you over just because stakes.  This has gotta be like... the sixth or seventh time in the past few years I've managed to pull a muscle just by turning my head.  You know.  The way I turn it on a regular basis.  So now I am doomed to walk around like a zombie for the next day or two because any fast movement hurts like hell.  Thanks so much.

In other news, the double shin splints I was getting have now shifted into more disturbing land, because now I only suffer them in the left leg.  ...and how.  It starts out as shin splints and turns into molten lava somewhere along the way.  Along with having half the foot and two leftmost toes go to sleep if I do any high impact exercise.  Along with occasional streaks of pain across the top of my foot just because.  (Not particularly painful, but the sort of pain that makes you go "Ow.  Ow. Ow.  Ow.  Quit that!")

So I suppose I should go see a physio or something.  On that future, mythical day when I have the money to do so.

Until then, I am carving DDR out of my lifestyle and taking more long walks instead.  Even if they turn into long hobbles halfway through.  Hell, if I'm lucky the problem will eventually fix itself.

...

I wonder if it's not that I'm unlucky and more than I'm getting old. >_>
