Gross, suppurating goo (aka my knee, five days later)

yucky kneeMy injured knee is healing, slowly but surely. the first layer of pussy scab came off today, revealing a readdish pink layer of new skin underneath. This image captures the molting midway. It only bugs me if anything rubs it (like sheets or pants) and stretches some when I bend my knee. We did an eight mile run this morning and it felt okay – still a little jiggly, but no pain. I am pretty paranoid when anything or anyone approaches me. Two Golden Retrievers (off-leash) romped over to Mia (on-leash) today to play and nearly knocked me over – again.

I am beginning to think that there is a kick me sign on my back that everybody but me can see.

So it goes.
