oh yeah, and going to the gym is easy when it's 9 floors down ( a 1 minute commute) and the pool isn't kept at a "freeze yer nuggets off" chill. Its comfortably heated. Cold pools SUCK. The only other place I swam that wasn't bonechilling was a Ballys in Hollywood and the South Point in vegas ( which would very obviously not be ice cold).

downside the Bally's was shallow and vaguely grey-water ish.

I might invest in a few more swimsuit pieces because after around 60-80 swims/ 4months the chlorine just destroys the spandex. This I know. Mind you, brittania pool in Vancouver was HEAVILY chlorinated, this one not so much.

Well, ok, usually not. Last night the water was oddly...murky. Like someone had dumped a couple gallons of milk in.

I think my neck muscle pull bloomed into tendonitis.

Sigh. And of course they're polar opposite treatments! Off to get an ice pack shortly and probably quarter up a prednisone 50mg tablet to reduce inflammation ( I can't take OTC anti inflammatories.)

But rest, ice, meds.Le sigh. Le HURT.

I've never had tendonitis flare so badly doing chainmail, and I haven't done much for a while, oddly and lo,freakout city.

Haven't had to do much due to serious backstock and massive etsy fuckery and changes have driven off customers, plus doing the portfolio.

Will be bringing SOME small amount of supply to Amsterdam tho. Knock out some necklaces or maybe a 4-1 patterned cuff or two.
