Got the results back from the x-rays -- apparently I don't have arthritis, but my hip sockets are shaped funny (shallow), and the doctor thinks the ball joints of my legs are rubbing against them, especially while I'm sleeping, hence the hip pain. It's actually kind of cool -- I am finding diagrammes online to show me what it looks like. I guess it would be a sort of asymmetric incongruity? Fun!

She suggested physical therapy, but I don't really have the time or money, so she also suggested taking ibuprofen before I go to sleep as a preventative.

Also, apparently, I can expect to have reasonably significant arthritis by the time I hit forty. So that's fun too.

Therapy at one (lots of issues to discuss there) and then I will finish this goddamn paper.
