Bad tape, no biscuit

[cjsmith]

Wrapping a bunch of sports tape around my foot at the instep turns out to be a little more complicated than I thought. My first attempt doesn't improve anything and causes weird stabs of pain at various spots in the plantar arch when I'm wearing shoes.

How could this be difficult??

Yesterday was Errand Day (2 items at grocery store, 1 item at drugstore, pick up 1 pair shoes). That's my limit on walking in the span of two days, so I'm not doing squat today unless I figure this out.

(Some day I'd like to see one of those smug "I'm so self-sufficient and strong and unbeatable look at MEEEEE" types deal with an uncurable health issue. They never fail no matter what, so naturally they'd quickly find a cure, and I could then copy it.)

OK, left foot (redone) is acting a little better now. Still don't know how this could be hard.

Y'know, with all your talk of tape, I thought of taping my feet this morning, but decided with my luck, I'd probably do it the wrong way or something, since my feet haven't been taped since last June.

If they didn't need it, I'd say you were wise to leave it off. Not much to help, might hurt.

I say you should get a rematch myself :)

He offered me a rematch, but he wanted me to run for time (i.e. he never wants to run again). I don't think I have it in me to beat his time... and I have a lot going on over the next two weeks (which is what he offered). :(:(:(

Aw, dang. :( I was sooo cheering for you. Oh well!
