A very specific thing to be moany about.

I have an injury.  Just because I reached out to a frypan yesterday.  I should have been reaching out for the handle, but for some reason---maybe dotage---I grabbed the part between the handle and the pan and now i have a swollen, sore burny place on my index finger.  It causes me to flinch every time I type y,u,j,m,n,h.  It makes crocheting really hard, when I only found it moderately hard before.  It is the reason my right hand looks bigger than my left, and the very excuse I needed not to wear that gorgeous but uncomfortable knuckle-spanning 4 inch long ring I discovered in the Byward Market.

Yay!, I think.

  1. Ah, I see that you are someone who actually knows how to type. I'm a four finger guy -- with plenty of typos.

  2. A few months ago, I closed the garage door on my finger and required 12 stitches. I thought it was just garden variety stupidity but now realize it was actually dotage, a term I hadn't heard before but will now be using to impress my friends.
