But they don’t hurt much anymore! Two days of general pain, and now it’s just pain on impact or awkward squishing.

I’m still not happy with the alignment on my front tire after having changed the tube in it. Luckily, my issue does not sound nearly as bad as yours. However, it has been enough of a pain that I totally feel for your calling in the professionals. Good luck with the riding when you get her back!

I think there were two warnings: first, “There will be pyrotechnics and strobe lights” (for the seizure-prone) and second, “So that our performers aren’t distracted, don’t use any cameras.” I suspect that the second was conveniently expanded.

I have 54 Angela Bofill tracks in my music library. I have two vinyl LPs. Even after 30 years, I still get breathless over “Love in Slow Motion.” She is 3 years younger than me, so I feel like we almost grew up together. Her health situation is a real tragedy.
