I'm feeling so sick that I might actually take my first sick day in a couple of years tomorrow. I've even cleaned up my classroom and made emergency sub plans just in case, though I'm going to try to Ny-Quil Bomb this thing and see how I feel in the morning.
This is a bummer, because I'm pretty sure I'll have to have surgery this year on my shoulder and might have to miss a couple of days then. I have an MRI on Saturday, my first ever, and hopefully it will reveal a cause to all the pain I've felt there since baseball season. I'll actually feel pretty silly if it ends up that I have nothing structurally wrong with it, because I've tried everything physical I can think of or read about to make it feel better. Since nothing's worked, I'm pretty much hoping it's a torn labrum or something like that, so I can at least figure out what's wrong and get it fixed up before March 1 roles around and I have to start throwing BP again.
If I have to have surgery, the Hopkins doctor I go to also works for the Orioles. That would be cool. Having surgery by the same guy who operated on, say, Eric Bedardd be a thrill, other than the shots and the pain and the cutting into my body and all that.

I hate to break this to you, but if you need surgery I doubt you'll be able to pitch BP by March 1. I fractured my shoulder in July and I can still barely toss a football across the room. I might be able to pitch BP by March 1. I know it's not the same injury (assuming you have a problem with your labrum or rotator cuff or something) but I didn't need surgery either. Surgery doesn't necessarily speed the healing process.
In summary, shoulder injuries suck.
hope you're feeling better.
Hey Epiph,
I've read your blog since you were in the Wash Post article... and I once donated for the Outward Bound trip and I was wondering if you or Bobby had a Christmas List this year?? The amazon thing is still set up, eh?
