Typing one handed is not fun

Typing this with just my right hand. Yesterday my left hand started acting oddly (i am of course a lefty) and with enough pain that I actually called and made an app't with a doctor for today. This morning, my fingers were not working well at all, I did a few meetings this morning in NY and then went to see the doc. After a long wait for an X-Ray and some tests, doc says it doesn't *seem* to be a big issue and is likely related to long sessions with laptops in coach as well lots of mobile device use (he yelled at me when I was twittering waiting for the X-Ray). Looks like I will likely need a cortizone shot and was told to stay off the keyboards for a few days... what this all means is posting and twittering as well as email responses are going to be light. Going to see how well Vista speech recognition really is.

 

UPDATE - just dropped my coffee cup... hand couldn't hold it. That was not good. Might call doc back tomorrow.
