Blurbs by a software writing archer - or should that be an archer that writes software? Stuff about arrows and code... :)

Just met and shook Brady Ellison’s hand!!! Wow, what a great guy! #london2012 #archery
On our way to Lords… Not the cast we hoped for.. Not the cast we expected… Very excited nonetheless! Let’s have a great final!
Real mixed emotions: Men’s Olympic Archery finals tickets have arrived! Bought as present by my father before he died unexpectedly…
Finally able to open and close hand again. Can now raise hand from down to just above waist height That’s about it! Hoping drugs still stop
All done Arm totally dead for next 12 hours!
Good news: First on the list :) You stay awake during the op and can watch them do it…???!!! Recovery for manual lifting - 4 to 6 weeks!!!!
Okay, I believe it’s only meant to be day surgery… out this afternoon… So why have I just been asked to order lunch, dinner & breakfast? :(
Arrived at the hospital… A bit early (had to be here for 7am) Now the wait starts…! Worst bit at moment is no food or drink…!
Starting to get nervous now… Operation in bow shoulder in approx 12 hours… arthroscopy to remove scar tissue… Not from #archery from the dog
Well, it’s not the maths that’s causing the issues (yet) it’s trying to get the #iPhone to draw what I want! Thought that’s be the easy bit!
Sorry, there should have been #sarcasm on that last post! Maths, fun? The only Maths I like doing is adding up my #archery scoresheets!
Maths! I'd forgotten just how much fun it can be...! Trying to do some complex plotting on the iPhone but think it's far too late for trig!
...Hoping for good results and quick recovery... That way I might still be able to make something of this season!
Op date set - 31st they cut into my bow shoulder to find out what's wrong/what's in there that shouldn't be...
Saw the surgeon yesterday... Need an op on bow shoulder :( Up to 18 weeks waiting time :( :( Recovery ONLY about 4 weeks :| Might shoot yet

After a big fight with PHP finally got the contact form up and running as expected. See: archeryboss.com/blog/contact… for more + few site tweaks
Shot 36 arrows tonight Not the best I've ever shot nor the worst... Got to start somewhere... Think the arrows are way too stiff though!
Bow now 10# lighter OTF... From 48.5 to 38.5 The long road to rehab starts here... (couldn't go lighter as wouldn't get the arrows!
