I want to start working on range of motion of my leg. I sure don't want to dislocate my hip, I am am cautious.

The good news is the hip pain is GONE. Before every step with that leg hurt.
That sounds all good then . So, has it been a fairly quick recovery, or about normal?

Hope the quack gives you the nod today. It sounds like you feel ready for it.

My physical therapist was amazed by my recovery. I have always been a fast healer. I hate being dependant on someone else to take care of my basic needs, and I really hate just sitting around watching TV. I prefer some activity.

Thanks Jeff. I bookmarked that website. I find it amazing that the Brits, 'Mericuns, Canadians, Aussies, and Kiwi's all claim to speak English.

OK, I take back what I said about the girl not being a partier. I just saw a few photos from a Halloween event she went to... In one she has another girl on her shoulders and that girl has what looks like a Corona in hand.

Sorry, I am not posting pictures.

No I did not, it was on her facebook.

I spent Halloween night (after classes in the day) in a meeting with the team lead, manager, and technical director discussing my suspension. The meeting went well and I convinced them to go with it so we are doing the radical system I came up with. Then I had to write a description of it and draw some pictures to send to a potential sponsor who is also a mechanical engineer. I also had to go get groceries and make dinner.

Not that I had any desire to go to any parties.

I honestly find this project more interesting. It is consuming my life, though.

They are doing enough work. The bigger problem is me not wanting to hand off the work. It was my idea but they do not allow individual senior projects. If I had not gotten any takers I still would have gone it alone, but it would have been in addition to my senior project.
