Sounds yucky. I assume that this is what they diagnosed you with?:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_trochanteric_pain_syndromeTo get a jump on the neurological stuff, have you ever been hit really hard on the right side of your head? If it's a central nervous issue, then left limbs are controlled by right brain, and the best a neurologist would do is hook up an EEG to your head and tell you the same thing.
Also, have the doctors done any synovial fluid checks yet? For that matter, have you had any injuries in that area in the past?

That sounds about like it, though he didn't say exactly that -- the last time he saw me I was fourteen, so he explained things in simple words, which isn't exactly my preference.
Nope. The symptoms he saw specifically when examining me were a spasm in my ankle, and abnormal reflexes in my knee and ankle. He was interested in referring me to a neurologist to investigate further because apparently those symptoms could indicate a wide range of issues.
No and no.

So, in case you weren't aware, I'm a space geek.
<--Cat's Eye Nebula
So when a friend and I went to see Gravity today, much as I realize that it's supposed to be a horror-thriller, we laughed our asses off from beginning to end.

Aside from it being absolutely ridiculous scientifically, how was it as a movie?

It was a pretty good thriller, and the best representation of modern space that the movie industry has produced. Half of the dialogue was really sappy, but the sappyness was needed to offset the tension (and yes, there was a huge amount of tension). The CGI was superb, and the wirework was seamless..
The one thing that I think you might have trouble with is all the spinning. If IMAX/3D movies make you motion-sick, you'll really want to watch this in 2D. Even on a non-IMAX non-3D screen, the view is just as impressive.

Hi everybody.
Nothing much happening in my end of the woods. I've started flying gliders again, work takes up most of my time, we've more or less adopted the neighbour's cat, mum has started chemo, and half of NZ is under water.
I have completely lost my hate for calling people on the phone, because i have to do it for work ALL. THE. TIME.
My hours get cut not next month but the month after and I have to decide if I can live on a fraction of my current pay, or whether I have to chance the sucky job market.

Glad to hear (read?) you're alive.
I hope your mom's doing alright. Chemo's pretty shitty.
I definitely relate to your phone call feelings, but I suppose it's good that you've gotten over them.
Job searching sucks. Good luck. I hope all goes well.

I check this site compulsively like twice an hour probably but I never post. I feel like I should change that, but I also feel like I have nothing interesting to post.
I'm also pretty sure 90% of the reason I'm posting now is because I'm doing everything in my power to NOT do my homework. *sigh* This assignment should've take no more than and hour and I've dragged it into six with my short attention span. Good job, self.
So that's my life.

I wasn't superstitious before this year, but I think I'm officially convinced that the number 13 is cursed and that this year is cursed.
Two houses have burned down recently in my hometown. Both homes belonged to family friends. The first one happened like a week and a half ago and one of the family members was killed. The second happen yesterday and thankfully, the whole family made it out alive. But they had just moved into the house a few days ago. It's crazy. All of their pets died in the fire (their dog had just had puppies). It's just so... sad.
There was also a car crash in my hometown. Four people died. Two of them were students at my high school. I didn't know any of the casualties, but shit, man.
It's not a good year to be in my hometown. It's not a good year. And I'm just sad.
And I really want this year to be over, because I've kind of irrationally convinced myself that the end of 2013 will be the end of the shitty luck but there's just SO MUCH and I just don't know what to do anymore.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to have anxiety issues for a long time after everything. It's just really shitty.
So in the hopes that I don't end this post on too much of a down note, I hope all of you are doing well and that things are awesome. And if they aren't awesome, I hope they soon get awesome and stay that way. Because you're all awesome.

These things come and go. Don't worry about them, but do make smart decisions.
Hope things near you improve.

That's awful. >.< I hope you and your friends and family stay safe.
