AAAAARRRGH!

I have hurt my right arm. I had some Bowen therapy (a therapy that has wacky beliefs underlying it, but which seems to work nonetheless, like accupuncture) this afternoon, which has helped a bit, but not a lot. I have 10,000 words that were meant to be written tomorrow, and which are all in my head, but I can only type with my left hand. AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGH!

I should take this as a sign to visit friends instead, but am sticking to my original plan and will instead be writing veeeeeeeeeerrrrrrry sloooooooowly.

In the meantime, minimal typing, so even though I will probably read your post, I'll probably not comment. Would you be so kind as to please choose the correct response from the following list:

* Yay!!
* Oh, I'm so sorry.
* Well said!
* OMG!
* Is that Tom Felton?
* That's because you're smarter than them.
* A paste of bicarbonate of soda.
* I find cats to be the best answer.
* Good manners are never out of fashion.
* It's not as though it's real cricket.
* Skandar!

To almost anything I say: I find cats to be the best answer. It usually is!

Take care of yourself, hon.

:-P !!

I agree! and I am. I used to be better at left handed typing, but I haven't broken my right arm in years!

You, my dear, rock. Though I hope you'll do it carefully. Take it easy, okay? *gentle hugs*

* Is that Tom Felton?

*lol* 10 more days!! :D

Yay! I knew it would work. *One-armed hugs back*

I find cats to be the best answer.

Apart from the obvious Get well soon! to you, cats are the best answer for most things, among them, but not exclusively:

a mouse, an upset stomach, too little time, a sad face, a dog, a burglar, many unsorted stacks of paper, a teacup you don't like, rude answers, a nice neighbour, dirty dishes, boredom, silly people, crazy phone calls, ...

:-D

I find cats to be the best answer.

Definitely! There's nothing in the world that can't be made better by the addition of a kitten. Except possibly a stew...

You're the right answer, too!

I once carried a cranky hat through a house where I thought I could hear someone breaking in. My theory was I would distract the burglar with my bath-fresh nudity, then assault him with a well-thrown cat while I found a better weapon. Turned out to be a fallen-down tree ;-)

CAT! not hat. Damn you left hand ...

AHAHAHA! and ew.

>I find cats to be the best answer

Yes, I'm with the cats, although...anything involving Tom might be correct too *giggle*

THAT LAST ONE IS TOTALLY WORKING FOR ME! =P

*throws some more of him at you, just in case you didn't get enough in my own post...*

*massages your wrist to make it better* I have no idea if it would work, sorry =/ I'd type for you while you babbled it all at me, if I were there! Sorry I'm not.

*cuddles!*

Good point! I wonder if he owns a cat?

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2009-09-15 12:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you, dear!

It's more the forearm, damn muscles. A bit have broken too many bones, a lot too mush typing with not enough stretching. If I was Skandar's age it would all be fine ;-)

Though the idea of a cranky hat is completely hilarious! *g*

[identity profile] catsintheattic.livejournal.com 2009-09-15 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I had the same idea about throwing a cat when I wrote the bit about the burglar. :-D

I am sure enchanted_jae must own one ...

[identity profile] blamebrampton.livejournal.com 2009-09-15 12:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I had to buy it salmon the next day ;-)

[identity profile] catsintheattic.livejournal.com 2009-09-15 12:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Money well spent! :-)

Pictures, please!

Or the story behind enchanted_jae's cranky hat ...

If that fucking cat walks over my hair again tonight, I'm going to turn him into a sporran!

[identity profile] glass-violet.livejournal.com 2009-09-15 12:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I believe he has a dog.
*is not stalking him on Twitter*

Oh, I am so sorry. I will be sending your some
healing energy, in the meantime, be gentle with
yourself. ( squishes )
