I have injured my hip with my new weight/exercise routine I have an appointment tomorrow morning with a sports medicine doctor. Reading up on hip issues, I think it's my hip flexor that is injured, which is apparently a common injury for athletes. Just hoping it's a strain and not a tear. But man, this crap hurts.
Hip flexor injuries suuuuuuuck. It makes your whole damn leg hurt. Sorry that happened to you.
Stick to low impact exercise like the elliptical machine, stationary bike or swimming while it heals. If you jump back to quickly to really tough stuff like running it will nag at you forever.

The hip flexors get abused on the regular, most folks over use them for situps/crunches, and can bark pretty loud just being strained. I can tell you from experience that they will get no better if you stop moving for a few then try to get back in on the new routine. See if your just getting gigged for starting a new routine and pace yourself. Shoot I went bowling last week and got my right side flexor unhappy with me...they really should take down the MPH display when you are allowed to drink and bowl.
JHOinTN check out the Agile 8 or Limber 11 stretching routines; they have some good stretches for hip mobility. The most effective (and by far most painful) is taking a lacrosse ball and rolling your hip flexors into it. It damn near makes me cry sometimes but it sure does improve my flexibility. Tight hip flexors are common for runners so if that's your exercise of choice then definitely take it slow easing back into it.

Thanks for the advice. I did take some time off (this has been nagging me for almost 3 weeks) but it's getting worse. It actually woke me up in the middle of the night, a shooting pain in my hip. It really really sucks because it hurts just sitting. It is especially bad if I have to lift my leg. I'm a bit of a baby when it comes to pain though, so maybe it's not too bad.

I am glad to see your going to the doc...3 weeks is a long time for a strain alone. I hope they get you back on track

I almost got drilled by a car while riding my bike in to work this morning. The guy tried to exit his parking spot and merge into traffic while I was riding up the hill in the traffic line. It's especially egregious because I made eye contact with him while I was waiting at the red light and he walked back to his car and hopped in the driver's seat. So he 10,000 percent saw me and knew what the situation would be. If I had been in a car he would've caused an accident so I have no idea what was on this guy's mind.
I had to swerve out onto the left side of the road (luckily no on-coming traffic) and pedal like hell to stay up. Then as I rode up the hill and made my turn he had the audacity to tailgate me. He followed SUPER close behind me for a few seconds then peeled out and pulled back in front of me and slowed down. Thankfully he made the next right. I actually was supposed to make that turn as well but I opted to go the long way just to get out of the situation.

The ol IT band is my nemesis. It's difficult to stretch (for me, at least). And it's only ever my right one that gives me guff.
In a weekend full of surprise moments, none was bigger than when an impossibly high afro attached to the hip-hop queen Erykah Badu strutted out to join them on a first-ever live performance of "Humble Mumble," a futuristic missive from Stankonia.
Motherfucker, I had to sell my ticket to the show.

Back from the doc, my muscles are just strained. He said it may take a while yo heal He ordered me 4 weeks of PT to help strengthen my core and hip muscles. No lower body strength training for a while.
Dear Blonde Bitch who tried to ruin the Neil Young concert for me,
I told you three times that there wasn't any room in front of me, yet you had to squeeze in anyways and push me into the guy standing behind me. Then you had the nerve to light a cigarette and blow the smoke in my face (you almost hit me with the cigarette a few times while waving your hands around). Here is where I want to apologize to you. I should not have grabbed the cigarette out of your hand and burned your shoulder with it. It was 90 degrees outside with no shade and I had been waiting up front since 9 AM - almost 8 hours and you come in 5 minutes before Neil is supposed to come on and push your way to the front. I was ticked off and irritated and I overreacted. I should have asked you politely to put out your cancer stick instead of grabbing it, putting it out on your shoulder, throwing it on the ground and stomping it repeatedly with my boot. I'm sure I made a fool of myself in front of everyone standing nearby (I could see the shocked look on their faces). I have had three close relatives die from lung cancer in the past two years, plus my dad beat lung cancer a few years ago, and seeing people smoking near me fills me with anger and rage. I don't mind if people smoke at concerts as long as you aren't blowing the smoke directly in my face and I'll usually ask you politely to put it out if it is bugging me. However, you need to show a little respect. Do not light a cigarette in a crowd of people that you just pissed off by shoving your way to the front. I would really like to thank you, Blonde Bitch, for not punching me in the face (I could tell you wanted to) although I think it's gross that you would pick up the cigarette off the ground and relight it. My boot had horse shit on it from accidentally stepping in it on the way from the parking lot to the stage (there were police horses patrolling the parking lot). I thought you did the right thing by pushing your way to the other side of the stage when another lady asked you to put out your horse shit cigarette because it was disgusting, although I'm sure the people on the other side of the stage weren't too happy with you either. After you left I had a great time watching Neil and the Nelson boys. I'm going to pray that you don't get cancer from your disgusting habit because it's something that I don't want anyone to ever have to deal with, even entitled brats who think they deserve to be up front no matter what even if that means ruining a good time for others. Again, I'm sorry that I overreacted. I will not be doing general admission concerts any more - too many morons attend and try to ruin things for everyone.
Your fellow concert goer, Crazy lady who burned you with your own cigarette at the Neil Young concert
I'm sorry if anyone thinks I'm a dick, but if you're trying to squirm past people close to the stage any more than 15 minutes into a set, I'm going to push the shit out of you, and, if possible, stomp on your leg.
I did this to a dude during RHCP at Lollapalooza '12. They were like, 30-40 minutes into their set and the cocksucker was trying to shove his way past the crowd 20 feet behind the rail. He fell over some people, I kicked him in his leg, spit on him, and stole his hat, as he was being dragged out by security.
there are very few things in the world I hate more than those people.
I hope you two have a wonderful life of spitting, kicking, and burning people. Just don't have kids.

Fed Ex sucks. I've been sitting at home waiting for my new phone to be delivered. The delivery man sticks a note to the door and hauls ass without ever knocking or ringing the doorbell. I called to complain and they tell me maybe possibly they might be able to come back today.

Meet them at the door naked. That'll teach em.

Hey now, I'm the resident Inforoo matchmaker. But I 100% endorse this match & will be glad to perform the wedding ceremony, as long as they get married in the State of SC.

You can have your title back. I always figured this wedding would be better if held in West Virginia. I feel as though both families in this union like to burn couches in celebration and/or anger.
Oh don't worry, I am happy to share the title. Let's just see how they hit it off first. And as for the state, it's just that I can only perform weddings in SC. Just something for you guys to remember.

Can I stand in front of them at the wedding? I'm really tall.
Why is it that when I do my best hooping I either forget to hit record or my iPad runs out of memory and just stops recording on its own. It is incredibly frustrating, and it has been happening a lot lately. Today I finally nailed the move I've been working on and now it exists only in my memory.
Group projects are the worst. There is always that one (or 2) that do the minimal and at the last minute. We started out with 7 and are now down to 4 (as the other 3 have dropped the program) so it's extra for us anyway and then the slackers. WORST. GROUP. EVER.

Teenagers suck. I seriously bust my ass for my kid and I get lied to and have to deal with fit throwing when she's busted. I'm too tired for this shit.
Fuck it, I wanna grab my camping stuff and drive to the Keys. I can deal with being a homeless beach bum for the winter. I'd go further south but I don't have a passport.

I'm sorry Kat. As a person who was a terrible teen, I assure you it will get better. But if you do decide to be a beach bum for the winter, I'll gladly accompany you because fuck normal life.

What a perfectly reasonable response!
I, too, hate it when I attend general admission concerts and some moron ruins everything. This one time, I was standing there watching a concert, and I witnessed this crazy woman assault another woman over a cigarette. That moron completely ruined the show for me. I'm glad you're out there, Ally, meting out your own brand of Completely Sensible Justice for the rest of us. Godspeed.
I work nights alone at a hotel. These five teens keep showing up, every week or two, and they wait until I'm distracted by another guest, then they go make a mess. Tonight they figured out which car is mine. It's not paranoia when people are actually out to get you! So far they have only messed with company property. If they mess with my car, I'll only be able to radiate so-much positivity. Wish me luck
