Retraction
In this post I made the comment that my left foot was only good for standing on. It turns out it isn’t even good for that.
It was ten minutes from the end of the football and, foolishly, I attempt what can only be described as a Crap Turn (kind of like a Cruyff turn but, well, crap). And then I felt a ‘pop’ in my left knee. A bit like Michael Owen in the 2006 World Cup but nowhere near as bad or as crippling (literally) for our national football team.
This gave me an excuse not to attempt jogging home (I wasn’t going to anyway, but being injured is a better excuse than being fucked). My knee still hurts, so much that Friday’s planned 5mile run is now probably in jeopardy.
My knees hate me, and I can’t really blame them, given all the Me there is pushing down on them. The irony is that all this exercise is to help me lose weight so there’ll be less Me pushing down on my knees. All this exercise is for the benefit of my knees. Stupid knees. I’M TRYING TO HELP YOU, KNEES.
Anyway, here’s a picture of Britney Spears. Well why the hell not?

That’s a great picture.
That is all I have to say.
Yes. Great.
Hmmm.
I found that picture on the internet the other night. How ironic. Very un-Spears like. A man who admires Britney is a man to be admired. So much more so than a man who waits for an English Rose to blossom.
