Osama and the Morning Commute

I read in the Houston Chronicle this morning that Osama bin Laden was killed yesterday. Good. Had an interesting drive to work this morning. The traffic was really getting think on 59 S. as I drove in from Humble, so I I got off at the Crosstimbers exit. Drove west on Crosstimbers, then south on Jensen. Turned right on Calvacade. Got held up for about 15 minutes by a train. Turned left and drove south on Hardy. That merged into the Elysian Street overpass. Very cool way to come into Houston. Drove west on Prarie, which merged into Memorial. Then drove south on Shepherd and west on Alabama. Except for the train it would have been a pretty fast trip.

Physical Therapy

Had my third session of physical therapy at 07:00 this morning. The whole left knee situation is still pretty wonky. I cannot tell if physical therapy is helping or not. It still seems to me that the bulk of it is supervised stretching and weight training. I’m pretty good at doing that type of stuff without supervision, so … not sure how useful this expensive therapy is.
