Bugaloos, Twiddlebugs same difference

I was beginning to think I had lost my mind when I had posted the YouTube of the Bugaloos, no one seems to remember them except me. However, I am happy to report my sister remembers them as fondly as I do. At least there are two of us, who were warped by this creation of Sid and Marty Krofft in the late 70s.

I mentioned the Bugaloos to our mother and we had a nice conversation reminiscing about them and our childhood, until she mentioned we had a picture of the Bugaloos on some dresses Amy and I wore when we were kids. It was then I realized we were talking about two completely different things. My mom thought I was talking about the Twiddlebugs.

Six weeks

I am sidelined for at least six weeks. No tennis - no good. My bad wheel turned into immobile wheel today thanks to an air cast. Not the most attractive accessory. I had been trying to continue playing with the plantar fasciitis guess I figured it was going to be around for awhile so might as well deal with it. This plan actually worked out for the best because when I was playing on Thursday there was this loud pop in the bottom of my foot. Suddenly my heel felt better, so I thought, "Maybe it released all of the bad heel juju into the rest of my foot." Well, it was something like that. Evidently I tore a ligament in my foot which the doctor told me is really the best thing that could have happened. The reason why is it cured the plantar fasciitis. Plus the recovery time for the ligament thing is about six weeks versus potentially months or years with the other. So all in all I guess it was a good thing to tear a ligament. I am bummed because I can't do any exercise for t...
