Result: misery
Mar. 24th, 2009 06:06 pmAs I foretold you, these my fingers are dissolved into needles, into pins and needles; my physio and I have had a session about it today. It's an odd demonstration, of how the human body is sewn together; she twitches something in my shoulder and it hurts all down my arm...
So. We are engaged, for a course of treatment; we make no guesses, how long it may last. I foresee much ouchie.
Still'n'all, it's nice to see her, as she is also an old friend and friend-of-friends; and there is an abiding pleasance in being the focus of someone's physical attention, despite the ouchie.
And being in town as I was, I thought I might as well stay there; so I went to the Lit & Phil and wrote six pages of Sekrit Projekt, as it was very much my turn. That was nothing but fun, no ouchie at all. I like having a Sekrit Projekt. (Tho' it's bloody hard to type; my fingers want to spell it right. I could never be a cat.)
Talking of typing, O LJ, give me your advices:
My blessed physio says that if I'm going to use the laptop in the library a lot, I should get a separate keyboard for it, and a stand to lift the screen closer to eye-height. Any suggestions, particularly for the keyboard? What's good out there, that's light to carry around?
Also, what does one do about taking a laptop on a plane these days? Are there extra regulations about whether it has to go in hand luggage or hold luggage, whether it's banned from either? I am all out of plane-fu...

Just be mindful of how knackered you're likely to get Queues get long and in Wisconsin I didn't know what hurt more: my tailbone, my feet or my shoulders.
