http://tinctoris.com Personal homepage of Jeffrey Radcliffe Wed, 06 Aug 2008 15:50:34 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en I'm slowly re-engaging in my normal activities, mindful that it takes a harmonious whole to make things really hum. When one small part isn't happy, nothing is at its best. I feel very present right now. And there is a beautiful flower on my desk: http://tinctoris.com/archives/2008/08/06/waiting-for-this-silence The physiatrist has diagnosed a stress fracture on my right foot, and I'll be seeing a podiatrist in the near future for more on that.

My back has been given the ... http://tinctoris.com/archives/2008/07/31/33 Previous years: 2007 | 2006 | 2005 | 2004 | 2003 http://tinctoris.com/archives/2008/07/29/photo-self-portrait-july-2008 Thanks to much spining the back is much better, though the foot is still acting up if I'm not incredibly careful (and even then, at times).

More information after x-rays, but hopefully nothing dire. http://tinctoris.com/archives/2008/07/21/broke-down I was up at two this morning, and couldn't get back to sleep. I sat for an hour, illuminated by the street lights bleeding in through the blinds, and enjoyed the whirring of the various fans and motors wafting in through the window.
