am thursday class

07:04 Thursday 04 June 2015 JST

Headed to Kawasaki station

09:00

Class was as great as possible with three students arriving at three different times! (one of whom hasn't attended in so long that I had forgotten his name)

back to my old surgeon

11:15 Thursday 04 June 2015 JST

My right elbow has been hurting from too much mousing, I think. I got a recommendation from Tariq, via one of his students.

His name is 吉川泰弘
The nearest station is 駒沢大学駅
His clinic's name is 駒沢病院
His position there is 整形外科部長

I looked up the hospital and it turns out it's the same one where I had my shoulder surgery done 9 years ago. (*)

So I pulled up surgery.robnugen.com (NSFL) and discover that not only is it the same hospital; he's the surgeon who did my surgery!

(*) Not only that; I got the recommendation 2 days ago, which is 9 years (to the day) that I was discharged from the hospital.

15:13

I showed doc a couple of the photos from the surgery and it seems he remembers.

I told him my elbow hurts and he pressed around a bit and I was like "yeah there" and he goes okay, "do this" (make a fist and tilt wrist back). He held my arm to resist the motion as I did so and boom pain. Yep that's the one!

Just got 2 X-rays taken, and I hope I'll be able to post them online. :-)

fun gg lesson

I think we're all caught up on checking their homework, and I'm sure they're all greatly enjoying the class (or the best actors ever).

got lins bike back from the shop

12:24 Thursday 04 June 2015 JST

It rolls and sounds like it's new.

The little generator thing was set to (slowly) carve a groove in the wheel, so I mentioned that to the guy. (I had explained it to him before; I had to buy new tires because it had destroyed the old ones with its patient wear.) He tried to move the light up so that it rode flat against the tire, but could not. So he put a full bonnet cap over the generator so it would only quietly contact the rim.
