She's right, it is easy. Here's a hint: Do them both in what ever way feels natural (i.e. "the same direction"). Then holding the wrist still, move the ankle all the way to the other direction. Then move them both. The ankle CAN'T move in the same direction as the wrist, since it's already at the end of its range of motion. You should then be able to move them in opposite directions.

If the ankle and wrist used are on opposite sides of the body, there's no problem but if they are on the same side then it gets difficult.

Rant Mania!

Pedestrians: If you're crossing against red, or in the middle of the street, I can hit you and not go to jail. You're on notice.

Taxi drivers: I have considerably less city driving experience than you do, but even I know that you don't stop to disgorge passengers on a corner, forcing everyone behind you to "block the box," and in so doing jam up traffic for blocks in each direction. You stop a few car lengths past the curb.

SUVs: If that big-ass bus can stay in it's narrow little city lane, so can you. Either stop driving like a jackass, or take the train.

Taxi P-1078: How many people were you going to let cut you off to get around that garbage truck? You're a taxi driver for god's sake, grow a pair.

Cantr: I have two characters that I really hate playing. One is a severe time investment, the other is a severe emotional investment. I'd like to be rid of both, but I realized that, even though they get no props on the forum (because I'm a shitty role-player), they're adding something to the game. At least one is, I'm sure. I just hate them both.

Work: Glad I have a job, but hate when it interferes with Cantr. Won't see a lot of me for the rest of the week.

Edit: I might be getting a sinus infection, just in time for my hot (and expensive) date with my wife this weekend. I can add this to the long list of hot dates cooled because of illness.

RotD/
I think I'm cursed. Like, electronically. There is no reason for my internet to be fritzing like this, but it wouldn't work ALL DAY yesterday.
The only explanation I can come up with is that since my wireless is unprotected, someone else is hogging all the bandwidth or whatever. And mom won't let me put a freaking password on it 'cuz she's tired and if I do it I'll just fuck things up. :evil:
Which, she may be right, but it won't be my fault, it's never my fault, the things that mess up are always beyond my control. >.< but so ARRRGH

Yeah, I forgot to mention they're suppose to be on the same side...blah on all you people who can do it! Including you, grandpa! :evil: *points at her grandpa and pouts* Dangit...

I can do it in either direction, starting off with either wrist or ankle, and even both. :)

Beware of Doug.... he's ranting! :wink:


ToD: I had a great day today. Everything seemed to work, I got (finally, yay!) to get those taxes paid, and it was less money than I thought it would be. I had a nice coffee with my sister, and we were talking about everything/anything.

Then, I had my first piano class :mrgreen:

And yes... my soon to be ex-husband wanted to ruin my day at the end, but I didn't let him. So...

Great, great day!

Thought: It was a beautiful, cold, blustery day today, which is a rarity. Also, I absolutely adore my personality psych professor because he's hilarious.

Thought the second: the boyfriend is trying to absorb me.

ToTD: For some reason I can't picture Kronos as anything but a male gigolo. I try, and try, but it always reverts.

:lol: :lol:

Firstly: gigolos are male by definition.

Secondly....
I imagine Kronos as maybe the type of character like....Joey on Animal Crossing for DS. :shock:
I dunno why. Even when I read his type the voice is the same animalese-type...stuff.

Finals..... ><
