"LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!"

…
PRIOR to my accident, I ALWAYS wanted to be OUTSIDE.
I was (AM) VERY ACTIVE!
I attended "MARTIAL ARTS"-class (to TRAIN and/or TEACH) at least THREE times a week … for at least 90 minutes EACH time.  
(… So, THAT's a MINIMUM of … 270 minutes/week.
MAXIMUM = 450 minutes/week)
… In high school AND college, I would WRESTLE for ~90 to ~120 minutes THREE to FIVE days a week.
(… So, THAT's ANOTHER MINIMUM of … 270 minutes/week … & a MAXIMUM of 600 minutes/week.)
I'd also partake in NUMEROUS recreational-SPORTS/-ACTIVITIES in/as my "LEISURE"/"RELAXATION".
(… Let's "GUESStimate" THAT as ~120 minutes/week.)

((… So, THAT'd be "270 + 270 + 120 = 660 minutes" per week as the MINIMUM … with "450 + 600 + 120 = 1170 minutes" per week as the MAXIMUM.
HHHMMM, so THAT'd be 
BETWEEN (660/10080 =) ~6.55% & (1170/1080 =) ~11.61% of my week(S)--PRIOR to my accident--was/were "spent" "SWASHBUCKLING" with my (ONCE-ATHLETIC) body.))

… So, APPARENTLY, I did SUMTHIN' DELETERIOUS to my "LOWER trunk" RECENTLY.  
(… I know NOT WHAT!?)
My LEFT hip--which USED-to have ALOTTA-METAL surgically-implanted IN it (… But, THANKFULLY, it's been REMOVED.)--has REALLY-been ACHING for the last couple weeks.  I've USUALLY/"pretty-MUCH" been rather "SKILLED" at "IGNORING" pain--to an EXTENT.
(… THUS, my MAIN-nurse said that she KNOWS when I'm in ALOTTA-PAIN, when I ACTUALLY complain of it.  … THANK YOU, 23+ YEARS of "martial arts"-training!)
HOWEVER, the COMBINATION of the FACTS that not-ONLY has THIS (ANNOYING/IRRITATING) "hip-casualty" been ONGOING (for ~"a MONTH"), but it's REALLY NEGATIVELY-affecting my "WALKING"!
(  : (  )

… Thus, I am "taking it EASY", until I "receive the 'GO-ahead'" from my MAIN-nurse AND an orthopedic-DOCTOR.
(… "Only TIME will tell.")
(… THAT's kinda been the ONGOING-theme/-explanation of MY "REHAB".
… It REALLY doesN'T HELP that my "T.B.I" SEVERELY-/SIGNIFICANTLY-"SAPPED"/-DIMINISHED my PATIENCE.)

… Ergo, my CURRENT "location"--under STRICT medical-orders/-instructions--is my BED … for NOW.

… JEEZ!  This "FOCUS-ing in a LARGE, SECLUDED-area on a MINIMALISTIC, LIMITED set of activities" REALLY SUCKS!  'Tis REALLY makin' me "QUESTION my BELIEFS, CONCEPTS & IDEALS"!

(… DAMNIT!  When WON'T it be "TOO-SOON" for "Holocaust-JOKES"?!)

…
"On the OTHER hand", I AM "looking FORWARD-to" some field trips in the next MONTH … or so!
(… E.g. An "'Engineering-REUNION' from/for my COLLEGE";
A "POKER-Party with FRIENDS"; A "Miami Heat basketball game")


… 
My "Martial Arts"-Professor emailed me today to 
wish me a SPEEDY-recovery.
(… YAY, how THOUGHTFUL!  I PROMISED to CONTINUE-to DESIGN/DEVISE GREAT-techniques.)
(… He has OPENLY-COMPLIMENTED me for MY UNIQUELY-COMBINING Karate, Jujitsu & WRESTLING into MY techniques!


… "YEAH, GO ME!")
