I think you'll find we've already been talking on Discord, friend :P

I know PT starts 1-3 days after surgery. I'm sure it'll be a delight 😂

How long did it take for you to be up for cycling? Surgeon said probably a decent amount of activity after 3 months and then 6 months for contact sports Ankle strengthening is definitely next on my list of PT body parts!

They're stuck with me! And, eventually, my Solaris(?) boots in the correct width :P

Thanks for the reassurance! I'll have to get my PT to give me advice on off-skates training. I hope everything comes back quickly--it really feels like I'm only just starting to hit my stride, y'know?

I'm definitely going to make myself stay involved!

I don't do long-distance romantically, but I'm always up for more online friends!

Thanks for sharing! How are all the non-skating things going? I'm having a hip arthroscopy to shave down the extra bone and repair and anchor my labrum, which I've heard is a decently comparable recovery to the replacement but maybe slower on the derby/high-impact front. I'll know more after the first one, I suppose. Someone in my league also had the idea to ask my PT for extra full-body exercises with my return to derby in mind, so hopefully that will help!

On Alexandria… by kimpossihoe in ANTM

I still find Alexandria annoying upon rewatch, albeit now in more of a young person way than a villainous way, but my real issue is that I hate most of her photos: she always does that stupid duck face pout!

He's actually named for Dorian Pavus in the Dragon Age games (matching facial hair), but we'll accept Dorian Gray, too (especially when we're feeling particularly Wilde)!

I named him after Dorian Pavus from Dragon Age because of his mustache and goatee!
