After spending my whole Saturday watching the Trilogy screening - which was lovely, but leaves you with buns of lead - I was oh so virtuous yesterday. Did some laundry and the vacuuming, changed the bed, washed the dishes, and then, having left the worst for last, mowed the lawn. I had only let it go two weeks, but OMG it was looonnng. I had to

Exacterly.

Sounds like Jo's right hand is all screwed up like my left hand is. We went to lunch today and I heard the sad story of her Saturday, including a run-down watch battery that made her think she was ahead of things instead of three hours behind.

And then she couldn't find her ticket ...

Yikes. I hope it wasn't her prep work that screwed up her hand. And the battery thing is just cruel. I'm sad to think that she could have joined us for part of it but couldn't find the ticket. I hope she at least liked her class.

Take care of that hand of yours!

She did like her class very much and she was trying to explain it to me and it had something to do with making one's own personal tarot. So her homework required her to go out and get equipment like cutting boards and an exacto knife and then cut out pictures from magazines that resonated with her. Sounds like her hand has been hurting for several days now though I doubt Saturday did it any good. It's harder for her than me because it's her right hand and she's right-handed.

Ha. She sent me a link to some Seattle-based writers organization that does classes and readings and stuff. I read it and went cold and nauseous all over at the mere thought :-)

That sounds cool, I like tarot stuff. Had a calendar when I was a teenager that came with some of the cards, just the major arcana. Not sure how I kept my mom from finding it and throwing it away. Still have it in a box somewhere - wonder if I'd remember how to do a reading.

How perzactly did you hurt your left hand if you're right-handed? OK, dumb question, you still type with both hands. It's my mouse hand that usually gets overused.

I'm eating some of those veggies and dip. They sure crunch loud now that most everyone else has gone home.

I don't know how I hurt it but I have had a pinched nerve on the left side for getting close to a year. Maybe it's connected.

I dunno. Am a wreck.

I used to read tarot cards. I liked doing it, it was fun to think about things that way.

I wouldn't mind some veggies and dip myself. Am still at work because I flipping forgot to include one field on the file that has to go to the CDC so now I have to recreate the file and I want to kick it off before I leave. But first I'm waiting for the freaking 150,000,000 record medicaid file to get unzipped wot I zipped up this morning since I wouldn't need it again. D'oh.

Am not completely sure but am getting something positive that I need to call ahead and have some good take-out waiting to pick up on the way home, except that I went to Shallotts with Jo for lunch. Dur.

[beruscats]

Go for the takeout. After dealing with a file that size twice in one day, you deserve it.

I even whipped up another batch of my chicken curry yesterday with leftover ingredients from the first one. Probably haven't accomplished that much in the last four weekends combined. Go me.

[baranduin]

Well, what I deserve is having to sit here for an extra hour and a half since I was so darned sloppy to leave off that one field. Am an idiot.

And I just remembered that I do have veggies in the fridge here ... they're what I brought in this morning but didn't eat what with convincing Jo to go to Shallotts :-)
