Day before yesterday I woke up and my knee was really swollen. Feeling around I found a bump with a tiny spike. I also thought it could be my arthritis which was bad. I ate potato chips on the weekend, while trying to play the Game of Thrones board game. TONS of potato chips. Potato chips are my cryptonite, I mean if I were in any way super. So I phoned my brother who is the authority of oueys of the limbs and he suggested I keep it elevated and apply ice every so often. Last night after managing a bike ride with it I finally got the magnifing mirror and some tweezers and pulled out a bit of something.
Could it have been a bee stinger?
It is much better today though I have gone back to the "click click" that it makes all the time whether it hurts or not. I had this mad idea that bee sting swelling would repair the torn cartilige in that knee. I don't know if it really is torn cartillige or just messed up from arthritis but for magical thinking it seemed good. When I was full on fighting cancer I believed that my favorite foods cured cancer.
I have a face painting gig! Daughter's future brother-in-law is holding some sort of event and wants me for two hours. I will be payed! I will take my clown costume but they have not asked for a clown just a face painter. :( Oh well. I go on a bit about clowning and kids http://riotheclown.wordpress.com/2013/05/23/face-painting-kids/
