#elbows

[env0]

It's normally meant for kicking, which I get Taekwondo is known for. But it's got loads of elbows.

[firmflexing]

Articular.

Elbows—

ugly in most cases—pointy, seamed, scarred from past encounters with contact sports, door jams, and counters. Is there a secret inscription, strike here, hidden in the skin folds?

Intense electric shock courses through one’s body when that hinge is struck and reverberates like a gong opening Valhalla in a Wagnerian scene. A stinging paralysis of pain follows.

But it is a valuable hinge—useful for lifting a wine glass to eager lips, waving broadly to a crowd, and throwing arms around a loved one. Fortunately, your own elbow’s ugliness is almost impossible for you to see. by Norma Wightman

[And the articulation. In our elbows and knees. Makes us buckle and we couple in endless increase. As the audience admires.]

I almost didn't hoop today. I remembered that I mentioned on here that wanted to drill some forwards and reverse thread the needle. I figured I could attempt that for bit. Sometimes it's difficult for me to plan a long hoop session but just attempting bits here and there is so much easier.

I started with my gold polypros and confused myself. I've gotten so used to having different color twins, so I switched to these.

I totally feel yesterday's silk hooping session. Talk about spaghetti arms. Totally need a strength training for hoopers regimen.

Did you know it’s impossible to lick your elbow?

*immediately looks at elbow*

*thinks about it for a second*

*is tempted*

*drops arm and sticks out tongue to try to see how long it is*

*looks at elbow again*

*still thinking about it and crunching the numbers*

*resists temptation and shrugs* Yeah, I think you're right. Crazy though, huh?

I fucked up my elbows again. Not just the right one, but both. Both of my arms hurt when I reach for things, lift things, curl my arms, or extend them. And my thumbs and fingers go numb if I keep my arms bent too long.

Excuse me while I go ice my elbows.

References I did for elbows and knees a while back, still think it holds up

Been a while....?

Hey there!

It's been a minute since I was actually ranting on here. I think the last time was at the beginning of the semester and now we're about to start our final exams, so the semester is about to be over. WOO HOO!!!!!!

Anyways, I can't wait to finally be done and finished with my second year! I'm about to be a third year college student! I'm so excited and I honestly can't wait.

I'm getting ready for my designing exams and I have to watch loads of tutorial videos before I can finally be ready and I am definitely NOT looking forward to that, but what's gotta be done has to be done.

I have to go now, but I promise to keep you guys updated on how my exams are going. Also, did you know you can't feel if you pinch your elbow? THAT'S CRAZY!

[Where the elbows are rubbed in. For 50 years. I love it. FIERI: With this kind of history, old-school favorites like mac and cheese]
