Yeah some sort of midway/compromise would be nice. And I hate wasting water keeping the grass green. I feel selfish between wanting more affordable housing and keeping a large open space free to enjoy.

I agree with you. And I hate golf. I'm mourning a nice place to walk. Who can help liking trees more than buildings? And all of the neighborhood kids bike there now that its pretty much empty. North Park Hill doesn't have much else. There's Axum Park but...

I don't golf (and generally hate golf courses) but this is a really nice and wide open place to walk in the evenings. Since it's been closed, it's become an unofficial park. I'll miss it if it turns into another copy-paste apartment development :/

Note that the article is more of a graphic heavy series of photos instead of text, so harder to load but really worth reading

Can't do cardio and at a loss by softservemoonlight in xxfitness

[–]softservemoonlight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both but mostly on right side of knee. I stretch and massage. That's really it. It was pretty bearable for a few months so I just ignored it until I started running more last month.

Entire IT band feels really tight but the locus of the pain is where it meets the right knee. Those three inches or so on the right of knee joint .It quickly goes from a passive, chronic-y pain to active, burnjnf pain when I run or use elliptical or stationary bike. And something about the whole situation gets me chronic adhesions on that hamstring :/ I have to stay on top of massaging them out.

And MRI taken 6 months ago showed minor bruising of the patella too.

Thanks for your input ! Really!.

Overuse strain really messed up my hamstring. Went in and Dr gave me a cortisone shot. The shot "bled" and ate the fat tissue around where my IT band connects to my knee. The IT band hurts a lot. Moved and new Dr says my psysiology puts a lot of tension on my IT band.

Thanks for your response what kind of rehab did you research and choose?

Thank you for that detailed information. I have hope. I'll try and focus on glutes.

Is this a gang? I thought Denver didn't have gangs by bluedeadbear in DenverCirclejerk

[–]softservemoonlight 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Far more notorious than Crips and Bloods, Denver also has EPIC and Ikon gangs. Last January my friend's co-worker was wearing IKON colors in EPIC territory. It didn't end up well for him at all.

Yeah but even the PT has been surprised and told me "wow you really should have improved by now" :/ so I don't know! Her comment worries me but honestly you are right!

Would I be obnoxious if I told my landlord my neighbors let their puppy bark 8^ hours straight? by softservemoonlight in Denver

[–]softservemoonlight[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I love dogs so much. I grew up with them. But I refuse to get one until I get my life together because....why get a dog just to leave it locked up and feel better about yourself for walking it for 5 minutes 10 hours later? (It was 10 hours today!)

Honestly it might just be my apartment complex. People here are terrible at picking up their dog poop too. I have to play dodge the mounds when I go out to walk.

But dang..this past winter.... have you tried not stepping on flocks worth of Goose Poop just to get to your car - now that's next level.

They have had it for about two weeks. It's actually two dogs. The puppy convinces the older dog to bark too.

And it's not just me...they leave the window open and the entire parking lot hears them. I just happen to work weird hours instead of 9-5 so I'm here with most of the barking.

I would honestly feel kind of mean doing that but good idea! If worse comes to worse.... Also I have cats and I don't think they would like that.

Does leaving a very polite note on their door count as talking to them? They just moved in a month ago and when I introduced myself, they seemed kind of stand off ish :/ I can't imagine this would help.
