Doctor Appointment

 

For the first time in a very, very long time, I decided to NOT run this morning.  

I have an issue of either a "corn" or maybe perhaps it is a "Plantar wart" on my foot (heel), and it is exceedingly uncomfortable to walk, let alone run.  It is something that I have been experiencing for a number of weeks, but have been trying to ignore and kept pushing through daily running and the extensive walking I do while lecturing and moving around campus. But, about three weeks ago, it became even more noticeable and even more uncomfortable.

It took about a week for me to figure out what the damnable health insurance at the U would cover and how they would cover it.   I then called the podiatrist my wife goes to for her feet (for her diabetes).  The first appointment I could get that would not conflict with my U duties was for tomorrow morning.  

Running yesterday was very uncomfortable.  Just walking around is uncomfortable.  I am hoping that this can be a simple procedure tomorrow where he will freeze the damn thing off and I can go on my way.
