That sounds like an AWESOME PARTY. Call that your Thanksgiving and it's cooler than anything else you could do. ♥
The PT guy was great- he's using a treatment that includes poking and scraping at my muscles with a metal tongue depressor (Graston, I think?) and the bruising is worth it. When those muscles stop clenching it's wonderful. To be in pain 24/7 for weeks and then suddenly walk without hurting is epic. I'm trying to avoid going up stairs, though, because I want things to settle down first- to get to my apartment I basically step up with my right and then pull up my left. Just to be on the safe side. Every doctor should know what this guy knows, imo.
Yeah, I remember you saying that, but even though it's a slog it's a shorter slog than the slog from here. *lol* Enjoy Kobe- if you can get to Tokyu Hands and the foreign food market (there's one up the street) and if you can get to the Sannomiya Shrine (http://www.orientalarchitecture.com/japan/kobe/sannomiya.php) do- it's right down the street from a gaming arcade and the train and it really sort of gives you a super special taste of the dichotomy between old and new (yeah, you've seen it before, but this is still fun stuff).
Man, I wish I could be there. Something tells me going with another person who knows the place pretty well would be a blast.
