I was referring to my recurring ankle injury that refuses to go away - it relapses ever so often, flaring up into a deep dark bruise around the eye of the ankle, and it is tender when I flex it.
Then it goes away - life resumes normalcy, and I could run again. It's damn frustrating!
Anyway, I completed a 10K competitive run around the Marina Promontory last week, and it felt good, even though I had to suffer through scorching 30 deg. heat at 8.30 a.m.! The newly opened Marina Bay promenade is quite a sight, with a tranquil waterfront flowing between downtown Marina and the integrated resort (or casino disguised as a resort - I couldn't quite figure out where the resort bits were). It straddles the new downtown skyline and the artsy parts of Marina Bay which just welcomed the newly opened Artscience museum, currently showcasing the Genghis Khan collection - haven't been in yet, so can't tell if it's any good.
Went for another short run tonight (5K) to work off stiff muscles and to build my ankle's resilience - using my Vibrams. It went pretty went - the sky was clear, and the moon almost full - all in, a refreshing run.
On the music front, we had a great gig out at the Esplanade waterfront last week (April 8), and it showcased what the band does best - the blues. Hopefully this would lead to more opportunities down the line.
I'm doing a wedding gig with Vic in May, playing indie pop. See how that goes.
Life is sort of becoming routine at work, which isn't a bad thing. People are starting to get used to having me in their faces, which is good sign (or maybe not). Anyway, I'm settling in, but still undecided if that's the right place to be at. Will ponder it further.
