It's entropy, and I helped!
Nov. 19th, 2010 12:16 pmTo celebrate my 30s, the meatpuppet decided that what it really, really wanted was tendonitis. Yay! This isn't particularly surprising, considering that I type, climb, and every job I've had post-college has involved hauling and shelving books. Repetitive stress is my middle name. For the past couple of months my right wrist has been more and more often sore and sometimes swollen, with occasional accompaniment from my left wrist. I've finally accepted that this probably isn't going to stop, and that my life will now include wrist braces and buckets of NSAIDs. Okay, fine.
The side effect of this is that now I'm hyper-aware of my wrists and how I hold them. Which apparently looks a lot like:

Also, sleeping. How the hell do you keep your wrists straight when you sleep? Especially if you're a paw-curling mammal like me. Clearly I need to perfect Lost Boys-style upside down sleeping.
Now I just need to get some custom spiked black leather braces, preferably with attachable Wolverine claws.
