Alan's store had their end-of-(fiscal)year employee party on Sunday, and my lovely Mom came up to stay with the kids so we could go out and have some grown-up socializing. There was bowling and laser tag and an arcade and potluck and much fun was had by all. Perhaps too much fun for them's of us who are out of shape. Two games of laser tag seemed like a fine idea at the time, but the next day we could barely walk. Alan was sent home from work on Tuesday because he couldn't stand up straight. Only just today was I able to walk up the stairs at work without wincing. The cane I got for my birthday was looking like a rather practical gift, actually.

I seriously have no idea how we could have hurt ourselves so badly and not realized it at the time.
