Legs

My legs are sore today. I am at the point where there is a little worry in my head about the possibility of lactic acid poisoning. But logically, I know I'm ok. I hope. They're just WAY more sore than they were yesterday.

Last night I had a dream that I woke up and discovered that my legs had been tattooed. Not just a little ankle tattoo, either, but full-on tattooed. Like full sleeves, but for my legs. And the prominent design were two samurais. One on each leg, and they ran from above my shorts line to my ankles on the fronts of my legs. I was shocked and a little horrified (in my dream). I mean...if I'm going to get a huge tattoo, you'd think I'd take a moment to design it such that an average person would be able to see the design. Why have headless samurai bodies? Why not shrink them down a little so I can wear shorts and the whole man will show?

But who are we to ask ourselves the purpose of dreams. Yesterday was the beginning of Restless Leg Syndrome Education and Awareness Week. Today is the anniversary of the rosetta stone being discovered by one of Napolean's troops. Also, the birth anniversary of Dr. Charles Mayo is today. Happy birthday, co-founder of the Mayo clinic!

The ol' ex caused a bit of a rumpus today. He emailed to tell me that Scooter couldn't go to summer camp this year. Ugh. Camp is the one thing the out-shines the rest of the year for Scooter. She talks about the 5 short days of camp all year long. She makes plans for the next summer starting the day she gets back. It's the one place where she can hang with her cousins and have some wholesome fun. The girls have one cabin, the boys have two. They have flash lights and pool time and a camp fire and all the cliche's that go with camp. And Scooter and the 8 cousins that are old enough to go own that camp. They are a gang of smart, good looking kids, and they are charming and fun. And the ex wants to take that away from Scooter. Even if it wasn't in the court order saying that he had to let her go, why would he want to stop her?! What purpose does that serve? Other than to upset her and isolate her from her family and further damage her relationship with him. It makes no sense.

But never fear. I'm sure his lawyer is educating him on what a court order means. Maybe he can also talk to him about their chances of winning appeal, and this can all end sooner rather than later. Somehow, I doubt that, though...
