Kamikazi Highlander of Doom
I'm not supposed to play paintball anymore. The doctor mentioned it in my "lifestyle modification" lecture earlier in the week.
I don't know whether or not I'm going to listen to him.
I've never been terribly good at much in the way of physical activity. When I was younger I was a pretty decent football player. I used to be very good at golf. But other than that... I suck.
Except in paintball. Paintball is probably the only physical activity that I seemed to excel at. I think it had less to do with physical prowess and more to do with tactical thinking, but still... I was good at it.
Now... I'm supposed give it up.
On the one hand, I might save myself additional pain and suffering by not aggitating the knee. On the other hand, the knee's going to be grouchy anyway, I may as well enjoy it.
If I play it safe, I'll be bothered by the decision to give up. If I play paintball, I'll probably reinjure the knee and have no one to blame but myself.
This has been a week of "can't win" scenarios.
