The Week of Horror
So, it occurs to me I should post this as an example of why work, study and fucking up your wrist don't work.
So, it starts last Friday with a doc appointment that involves five sentences, continues with a complete down of all bigpond services in the area (internets, phones, eftpos, it has telstra it was down) for a full 24hours, followed up by an ultrasound that then involved a single sentence from the doc passed to me by a receptionist. Amongst all this is an 800 word essay for one unit of my BA where I've done 1500 words for the other unit, only 24hours to type, research and send off said essay, two opens at work (0645 two days in a row - some god up there hates me), missing my best friends call three times (she who is in USA with her beloved and whom I haven't spoken to for weeks) and a shopping trip to Kmart where I had to try on all the clothes I wanted to buy. This trip is follwed by a dinner, a glass of red wine and a very close call with the casualty room for shock. Mostly beacuse the essay, ultrasound, work opens that were 5 and 7 hours long respectively, dinner and shopping were within 60 hours of each other.
All because my wrist has been painful for just over a month now....
So yes, my week has sucked majorly, and I still don't know why my wrist hurts. Currently my options seem to be a Sprain, a Strain, a Partial Dislocation and I'm Just Weird. I'm thinking I may have tried to dislocate it during yoga one week, the other option was RSI but the doc says my ultrasound is normal.
So after all that, This happens:
I love my job, I really do. So it's nice to know I still have it after extending my week of horror. This one consisting mainly of sleep, work and another uni assignment I thought I'd finished. Oh and did I mention when I get tired my til is out and I get called for a counseling session? This time we've set out some rules - no more than 20 hours over four or five shifts. This is EXCELLENT!
I didn't realise just how tired trying to get my til right and get my study in and everything had made me until I slept 18 hours in one hit. Usually I need about 10 a night, but 18 is scary.
Assignment is going well though, the section I thought would be hardest was the easiest part and the easy part is still giving me 300 words worth of trouble but its getting there. XD
