I'm getting old.

So I hurt my arm working on the car. That was like... last week, Tuesday. It was a strange angle I was using my right arm and I was putting a whole lot of pressure on it. I felt my muscles twitched and jerked as I put my mind over the weakness my frail form can put out.

Outwardly, I'm fine. But as soon as the next day, I felt sore. It wasn't a good muscle building sore. It was a Arnold Schwarzenegger GGAAAWWWAUUUUAGHGHAGGGAA sore whenever I put force through my elbow. The next day after that I couldn't help but wince doing simple things, like lifting steering wheel lock for the car (which requires some complex moves). I laid off it, since Tennis Elbow is a pain (badum - tshh). And given a week (well... tuesday to saturday) I felt it again when I was throwing a basket ball.

Just today, while shaking a rattle can of paint, I gasped and nearly let go of the paint can.

Writing it down seems scarier than what it is. I just take some ibuprofen and lay off it, and it gets better. Theres just these odd pangs and reminders that, when I would get a very similar injury when I was younger, I would heal in a day or two. This is no more apparantly.
