Various and sundry
Jul. 13th, 2021 05:48 pmIn theory, I was able to take my wrist brace off on Monday. In practice, I've been wearing it about a quarter of the time, and I also wore it to sleep last night. I'm going to see how weaning myself off it goes over the next few days, and then if I'm still having trouble on Friday or so, I'll follow up with my doctor. It's hard to tell how much of the weakness and twinging (especially if I apply any amount of force to my left thumb) is atrophy from not using my arm for several weeks, and how much of it is the injury still not healed. Fortunately, my right arm (mainly my elbow) and side are back to normal (which for my arm doesn't mean 100%, thanks to my old shoulder injury and RSI issues, but it's way, way better than it was).
I also wrapped up my wipbigbang draft, which reminds me that I need to check in over there. I have an action scene that's mostly undrafted, but I reached what feels like a good endpoint. I wish I had been able to convince myself not to turn the sequel into part 2 of a trilogy, but it is what it is.
I felt like there was something more to talk about, but I'm blanking on it, so I'll leave the post here. I hope everyone is having an excellent Tuesday (or Wednesday, if that's what it is in your timezone).
