Bye Bye Bucky

przedLast night was the Badger's Sweet Sixteen game against Notre Dame's Fighting Irish. It was a tight game, and the Badgers gave a great effort, but they fell apart a bit in the last few minutes. So, it's goodbye to Bucky Badger for another year. (Fortunately, it'll be hello to that other Bucky when Civil War opens in May. *g*)
In other news, after making a full recovery from the shoulder injury, I seem to have really buggered up my left knee. I did my usual three classes this week with no more than the usual knee issues, but yesterday when I woke up my knee felt a bit glitchy. Then we got in the car to make the three hour drive up to my mom's for the weekend, and by the time we arrived I could barely put any weight on my left leg.
Poking around on the internet and based on where the pain it, right below the kneecap, it seems likely that the knee pain I've had for ages has been "jumper's knee," and that I've finally done the tendon some serious damage. And thinking about the week, I suspect it happened when we were practice flying sidekicks ahead of breaking boards this Friday.
I'm hoping I can get this under control really soon. Because I'm supposed to be doing my last pre-black belt grading this Friday, and the final, weekend-long black belt test in six weeks.
Zoiks!
