Like trying to weave a box of shadows in which to carry water

Fic for fightingthecage, from here. Requests are, as always, still open.

( Humans are so difficult )

And, because I'm still low on things to do, another fic:
"Ignorance is not stupidity, but it might as well be"
For moofoot, who wanted Star Wars :D

( As if filling the open slot wasn't hard enough )

(no subject)

I? Went for a run today. This makes me proud, even if it was the most slow, painful, interrupted run in the history of runs. My knee's been bugging me since last Tuesday, when I stood on it too long during my amputation surgery, but today I told it to bite me and went for a run.

And really, most of my inability to run like the rest of the gazelles out today is my fault. When I hurt my knee, I was at a normal (if on the heavy side of normal) weight. At my second knee surgery, I was at a normal (again, heavy side of) weight. And then... I dunno. Life. Things. Me being too stressed and not giving enough energy towards being fit.

But I can fix that.

'Cause someday, I do want that marathon.

And next year (in a month or two, whut?) I'll be living near Yosemite. And you better believe I'm gonna hike all the trails. :D Knee or no knee.
