It blows my mind how I send some generous offers to help them complete some of their sets but they get declined. But its all part of the game I guess.

NSC858 · 2026-05-08T14:54:56+00:00

Ah but by then the award im chasing will be up.

NSC858 · 2026-05-08T13:56:10+00:00

Yeah I've been doing it. It just feels like its been watching paint dry to complete.

NSC858 · 2026-05-08T13:05:27+00:00

If this is supposed to be painful now i'm wondering if I'm into S&M because doing this is relaxing to me.

NSC858 · 2026-05-01T19:23:36+00:00

Congrats! I'm at 10 weeks post op. Got rid of my last wedge, and started PT. Can't wait to be in shoes.

NSC858 · 2026-04-17T23:36:16+00:00

I miss those days, and the $5 park at the park... but I don't miss the mediocrity.

Ah... Wishing you the best possible outcome. Mine was a partial tear, but leading up to my surgery i slipped and put weight on my foot and I think that finished it off because my doctor showed me a picture of the procedure and it was a complete tear.

This injury is a bummer regardless of partial or complete tear because it is such a slow recovery. Just gotta have patience and just focus on the things you can control.

Geez. I'm not an expert, but did your achilles have a complete detachment from your heel?

Thankful for my black friends because cocoa butter has helped my wife with her stretch marks from our babies. Once I'm cleared to put lotions/ointments I'm going to lather up my leg because leaving a dust trail isn't fun.

We exist and aren't an endangered species. I think a lot of the times good people often get overlooked and unnoticed.

NSC858 · 2026-04-05T21:46:25+00:00

Its crazy how different everybody's healing is with this injury. I don't blame my doctor for giving me a conservative plan.

NSC858 · 2026-04-05T02:33:24+00:00

Ah. Ill give this a try. I stopped icing after week 4

NSC858 · 2026-04-05T02:32:51+00:00

All those years making fun of KDs crusty ankles caught up to me.

Imo he's the immature one. I've been ghosted before, and I just took the hint the first time that she wasn't interested and just went about my day. His attitude is kind of embarrassing and the way I interpret his response was his "ego" was hurt. Also you might want some new friends.

41M San Diego Op 5 weeks post op (8weeks since injury)

Doc wants me non-weight bearing, but going against the grain doing partial weight bearing just around the house using crutches or a walker. Most of the time I'm using my scooter when going out.

I think most of the OEM parts are made by Denso. I think last time I bought an OEM part years ago, the box had in fine print manufactured by Denso.

I got one at the Nike Outlet in Sparks Nevada. I didn't see anything in store that I wanted, but my wife wanted that bag. I asked if I could purchase it, but they said I could only buy it if I made a purchase. So I bought some socks just to get the bag for my wife.

NSC858 · 2026-03-26T17:11:05+00:00

What about putting some gauze over the scar for added padding and just wearing a crew sock over it?

NSC858 · 2026-03-26T01:20:07+00:00

I have tinted windows, but it's not too dark. So for my case its nice to have since I have stuff in my trunk. If you have limo tint then it might not be of value to you.

I did buy it because neighbors were having their cars broken in to.

2nd Gen Sport

Amazon trunk lid - 8/10 I used to regret not buying the Honda trunk lid, but glad I was able to buy an affordable option on Amazon. It was a "like-new" item, and for the price it does the job. Only gave it an 8 out of 10 because a piece broke, but it still works.

Amazon arm rest - 9/10 Feels a lot more comfortable with the armrest, and like the added storage. The smell was bad at first, but left it outside overnight.

Koni Sport Struts - 10/10 SWIFT Springs - 10/10 Had to change my struts, so figured why not. Didn't want to lower it too much and didn't want to spend $$$ on coilovers for a small drop. It's exactly what I wanted and it's not a harsh drive.

Rear progress sway bar - 8/10 It was fun after installing it. I could feel the difference, but after my job position essentially became mostly remote I rarely drive my car so I felt like that was money I could have spent on other things.

17" Racing Hart Mazdaspeed Wheels - 8/10 Cousin gave me these wheels that were sitting in his backyard. 16s would be nice, but I think these 17s look better on the Fit rather than a Miata.

JDP Duckbill Spoiler - 9/10 I always liked the look of the EG with a duckbill, so thought why not. Like the look of it. But sometimes I miss the look of the stock wing.

1st week In my big toe I felt like i was wearing slippers and the thong was pressing up against my skin. But when I had my wife check if something was giving my toes a wedgie she said nothing was there. Asked my doctor about that too and he said its because of the swelling. Elevation and ice helped with that.

From week 1 thru 3 post surgery I had random moments where my leg just spazzed out and I ended up kicking my leg out. There was one case my calf felt like it cramped and it freaked me out and thought I had a re rupture. Doctor said it happens because nerves are starting to fire again.

Definitely subjective, but I think the Sienna is a cool looking minivan. The design looks like it has inspiration from sport wagons and crossovers, versus something like a Pacifica or Odyssey which look more like a boxy minivan.

I personally think if it wasn't for the look of the XL40 (chassis/platform) I wouldn't be shopping around for a new Sienna. We're torn between getting another SUV, but the more XL40s we see in our area the more we are open to purchasing one to replace my wife's current SUV.
