Inflamed Deltoid Tuberosity

Mike's subject body part (a tendonlike extension of the lateral deltoid that connects to the lower arm) is sore and he's grumpy because it's stopping his lifting and making it hard to sleep. He hasn't been doing his rotator cuff exercises for months, so I'm pushing him to do them, since such shoulder problems can often be due to neglect of this apparently pointless but important part of a good routine. Rotator cuff exercises are like flossing -- no fun, but it heads off trouble in the long run.

On Saturday Arie left two messages for Mike -- he sounded irritated because Mike hadn't responded to his request for a last-minute massage appointment. When Mike got back to him he had changed his mind. Sheez.

Sunday I was in bad shape -- not much sleep for some reason. Took a nap in the morning but still felt rotten. Slump continued to the gym, and had dinner over on Paul's side of the bay at a pho place. After dinner we watched a Simpsons episode and re-watched The Celluloid Closet. Paul still hasn't seen most of the classic movies (e.g. Bringing Up Baby, Some Like It Hot, and dozens more) so we'll have to educate him.

You guys should come up here sometime for a "required viewing" movie night. I still haven't seen Whatever Happened To Baby Jane, for instance.

But you and Jack live it every day! [heh] .. even if your staircase is not quite as dramatic.

Good God! I was forced to watch this in late 2003. It left me scarred for weeks.

I saw much of this film on TV about 10 years ago.

A great Joan Crawford/Betty Davis film I might add.

What [livejournal.com profile] dr_scott didn't mention is that I've seen lots of classic camp movies. Baby Jane isn't that great; however, I LOVE All About Eve, Auntie Mame, The Litte Foxes, and so on.

I have never seen a Thin Man movie, nor any movie with Elizabeth Taylor or Doris Day or Rock Hudson. I could, however, reenact—complete with choreography— The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and Victor/Victoria. Oh—and any AbFab.

Don't feel Bad, Mike [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and myself have not seen many of those most see film's; however we seem to well adjusted card carrying homo's. I'm surprised you do not have Rocky Horror Picture Show listed...... "OH!! Rocky"

I've heard that inflamed deltoid tuberosity is usually caused by jacking off to too much Bette Davis...

Well, you'd know!
