Had my first session/treatment at Accelerated Rehabilitation Centers on Fullerton and Sheffield with Paul and Jamie. Standard medical history. Took some measurements, did some musculature tests. Then they tried to figure out what was wrong with it. Not sure if they figured it out. Probably hard trying to deal with symptoms after the original injury was 5 years old. Also didn't help that they applied a lot of pressure using thumbs for leverage, so felt a lot of discomfort from their fingers. Eventually they gave a couple things I can do for treatment, or rehab, or exercises for homework. And get to go in on Thursday, then next Tuesday and Thursday again. Not sure if it's joint or tendon yet. Wait and see. Besides that I think I'm addicted to Redbox. Picked up Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, both for Tracy, at the 7-Eleven on Halsted, then saw that the one in Sears, I mean, Willis Tower, had Momma Mia!, which I got on my lunch break. And then I already reserved Tropic Thunder and The Forbidden Kingdom for tomorrow. Yeah, a bit of a problem, except that's only $9 so far. Tracy worked the night shift so I got to make dinner, fresh pasta in a sun dried tomato goat cheese sauce. I'm still not happy with my fresh pasta. I need to see either Jamie at Home or Good Eats to see how they do it, and better yet what it should look like.
