Wiscon/shoulder update

[redbird]

The sore shoulder is still bothering me, so I won't be online as much for a bit, I suspect. My plan is to call my doctor's office in a few minutes and ask for an appointment.

Wiscon was fun, but the shoulder pain was draining and I did less, and probably enjoyed it less, than I otherwise would have. Sunday morning, when I was about to bail from a panel because of this, matociquala suggested I try a sling, and quick experimentation with a sweater proved it worthwhile, so cattitude got me one at the drugstore, and it did help. A bit later in the day, I ran into carbonel, who is a Trained Professional and showed me how it ought to be rigged. Thank you all.

More details, possibly, later.

Also, I doubt I'll be on AIM for a bit; I will be answering the telephone, because I can do that one-handed.

Hi - if you'd like, I would like to exchange IM info with you. I love being able to get on the computer any time day or night and see if I have friends available to chat with. My screen name on AIM is FiawolC

Typing onehanded

The second time I damaged my left wrist (stopping one's fall with one's dominant hand is not a good idea), I found out that I could type quite well with my right hand only. In fact, I could type faster than the Data General terminals at work could keep up with me.

I think that's when I began insisting that my initials were DSG, not DG.
