My friends!
TWO HANDED BLOGGING HAS RETURNED!
See my remarkable speed and fluency! Typing with the speed of thinking almost! Hello old wpm friend, how I missed you.
Another thing I forgot to mention is that a bunch of the letters on my keyboard are all rubbed off, so hunting-and-pecking, as I have been doing for 2 weeks now, became kind of a nightmare.*
The doc says I can live without the splint now except for when I’m doing “chores.” Like…..threshing wheat? Anyway, I will wear it while packing/moving but I no longer have to sleep in it!! I can reclaim my every-other-night on the better side of the bed! Poor Gary.
I had to take a cab out to the weird medical complex, past the highway, through cornfields. Life without a car is weird. A cab in the rural midwest! “Say cabbie, there’s six bits in it for you if you leave the motor running, I won’t be two jiffs!”
Really intensely bummed on a news item that was brought to my attention yesterday that I don’t want to talk about. Feeling better and better about not procreating.
What’s next? We move in ten days. I’m nervous and excited. What will it be like, living there again after 8 years? So crazy to finally be returning. I always thought I would but then it’s like so many years passed without my really realizing it. Now I’m an old fart.
*loose sense of the term
