smonster, how's your hip/IT band? I was thinking of you today because my doctor sent me to get an X-ray of my lower back/left hip since it's been giving me grief for 2 months.
I think it's probably just really persistent trigger points that I'm not being diligent in attacking with the tennis balls/foam roller (which is THE DEVIL). But my doctor said I could have some arthritis starting in my hip that could be referring pain out to the muscle and causing trigger points (which in turn make the muscles have pain). Which would still make it mostly a muscular thing in the end, but I guess if I have some arthritis starting it would be good to know.
PLEASE remind me not to engage with people on Linked In groups who basically accuse me of being a lazy businessperson and not a "real writer" who needs to "brush up on my writing skills" because I have written some articles for Helium and gotten a few jobs through Elance.
I HAVE disengaged, but, OMG, guys! The internet outside of Buffistas is full of assholes! At our kerfuffliest, we are still bastions of sanity in comparison!

It is important to remember this at all times.
I forgot the golden rule of intertubedom, sj!
Shaking it off...
Oh, and Erin, in case it wasn't clearly enough implied in my previous post, they are completely and utterly wrongheaded. You are a great writer, and I am so very happy that you are happy with your current job.
because I have written some articles for Helium and gotten a few jobs through Elance.
I am not exactly sure what could possibly be a bad thing about getting paid for writing.
Because one is a content mill, and the other... if you're a Real Writer, and Doin' Yer Business Right, you would NEVER have to use Elance!
Hence, I am stoopid, not a real writer and a bad businesswoman. @@
ETA: I'm over it, and laughing it off now. Just sharing the dumb.
ETAII: Typo. Fixed, because I am a Real Writer!
