In unrelated news I managed to twist my ankle on the last day of my first week at work.

 Let's see if I can at least survive the first pay period without getting hurt worse.

Ugh. Heal up!
Keep an eye on me. I shimmer on horizons.

Ugh. Heal up!

 Ankle is not as bad as initially reported. I can walk. However I may have tore or strained something in my knee because there is a bit of pain there when I walk. However rate of recovery is good I should be mostly fine by Monday. Mostly losing my mind being cooped up in the barracks with no internet.

 Unrelated, I think this windstorm I'm watching just tore down the cell tower near me (literally a quarter mile from the barracks) since my cell signal just nosedived.

I wish I had both the skill and the ability to stand within five feet of one of the blessed felines without my immune system trying to kill me! :)

It is a commercially available product from (where else?) Japan.



They also make dog armour

These ones are more aesthetic than practical (I think - my Japanese is non-existent), but I've actually heard of modern dog armour being used by pig hunters.

Edit: And of course there's this :)

And yet, they forgot to add the one truly indispensable item of a samurai's equipment ...
