The hurricane passed by yesterday afternoon and evening, on its way to Nova Scotia. Impressive amount of wind throwing rain like trebuchet loads of pebbles at the windows. We weathered it warm, dry, with lights unflinching (well, OK, they flinched a little bit -- but you would have, too).

We did the thrice-damned Thing with the clock, so of course I woke up at "4:30" this morning, and will be exhausted by "9:30" this evening. Can we please just choose one time system and stick with it?

Didn't think so.

The Last Burst to get Duainfey outta here corresponded with a burst at the day-job, the combination of which did my wrists no good at all. I tried to ease off as much as a I could, only to notice on Friday that the pain in my right wrist was not the usual toothachy pain of (mere) tendonitis, but a hard pull on the palm side of the wrist, which is Much Scarier. Get thee behind me, Carpel Tunnel Syndrome! I need to get cracking on Longeye, which is still due in March-at-the-latest, the day-job workload isn't looking like easing off any time soon, and neither of those is negotiable.

Lest you think us sluggard, we've signed a bazillion books this weekend, enough to cover the rest of the Liaden Universe(R) Companion Volume Two orders that still need to be mailed. We did go out for breakfast yesterday morning at the South End Cafe -- mmmm, strawberry crepes -- before the rain hit, and drove out to Unity under a gray and busy sky.

Today, we'll take some time off to do an interview in Second Life:

...then back to bidness as usual. Perhaps I'll recover the top of the worktable today...

In panicked voice. PLEASE don't lose the wrist....
Have you tried simply soaking it , a lot, in comfrey tea? Helps regenerate cells, heal bruising, very useful plant.
Most sincerely,
Nanette Furman
