And now for something completely different: a change in direction!
When I hit the Yangjae-cheon creekside trail from my office, I always break right in order to follow the trail toward Gwacheon. If I were to break left, I would hit another watercourse, the Tan-cheon, which leads to the Han River. Unlike my friend John McCrarey, I've never walked all the way to the Han before, so tonight might be the night I do something new.
UPDATE: my intestines are vetoing a long walk. Didn't poop all day, which isn't normal. I have to go back to my place and hover close to a terlit, I think.

shall I walk out to the Han tonight?

Did you recover from your fall? I hope you did.
Still recovering! Thanks for asking. The aches are lasting an annoyingly long time. For some reason, my right ankle was bothering me for a couple days, as if I had twisted it, but I don't recall doing so during the fall. Whatever my recollection, I guess something must've happened. Anyway, the ankle was fine yesterday; I went for a 21K-step walk that included all 14 of my usual staircases (it'll be another week before I'm back up to doing 28; I slacked off from exercising for a while).
My posterior still hurts, but the pain isn't bad—more of a dull ache at the hip than anything else. All systems go.
Am currently thinking I might just do the staircase in my building instead of walking out to the Han tonight. Intestinal reasons.
Was it tough writing "Vetoing" after earlier writing so much about 'voting'?
A few years ago, my father-in-law drove the farm tractor off a path and I fell a few feet into a rice paddy. I jumped up quickly so my wife wouldn't worry I was hurt and helped right the tractor. Two days later I was wondering about a pain in my neck. On the third day, it was getting close to agonizing. Didn't feel a thing on the first day.
My walk to the Han is only 30 minutes or so. I expect your getting there will be a a lot longer. I do enjoy the riverside though. Never done it at night though.
