Speaking of waterfall's, I got a new Monsoon shower head, but I don't use it because "I don't want no scrub!"

Wear them! Your knees aren’t getting any younger and you don’t get any points for wearing them out faster than you need to.

Quest lab results:
Total Test 627 ng/dL (250-1000)
Free Test 142.5 pg/mL (35-155)
E2 19 pg/mL (<29)
RBCs 5.81 (4.2-5.8)
HGB 17.3 (13.2-17.1)
HCT 51.1 (39.4-51.1)
Looks good. This is doing 8mg most days of the week and 2 days at 7mg. Could the 19 e2 explain the achiness? Not many other symptoms i can easily identify of low e2, unlike when I’m 17 or below.

No, not unless you have been feeling achey basically for eons (since you have been doing 6-8mg daily for as long as I can recall). But definitely not your recent/transient aches.
Bloods look good homie, really solid numbers for year round wellness.
If you wanted to raise e2 (which seems perfectly reasonable from a number perspective relative to your total and free test, mind you), you could go to 8mg daily, take less frequent shots, or simplest would be to add a little DHEA (or Pregnenolone).
Going away from daily shots I know is a bad lifestyle move for you, and obviously raising testosterone dose will also raise that (quite possibly even moreso than estrogen). So the simplest move is just pop a cheap 25mg DHEA cap here or there before a training session. A little can do a lot, so 1-3x a week might be plenty of extra estrogen as sensitive as you are to hormones. But should give a little mood/focus boost for that session.
