I atretched the cast a bit this weekend I think, but I&#8217;m not sure that position does it any good because of the elbow cast I tend to try to twist the wrist to make up. Perhaps it&#8217;s time to learn something like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.onehandedkeyboard.com\/dvorak.html\">one handed dvorak<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>So I broke my Scaphoid in my left wrist on Thursday and got it casted on Friday. I still went <a href=\"http:\/\/www.point83.com\/forum\/viewtopic.php?t=6007\">camping on the Suaittle River<\/a> with Point 83 over the weekend though. The arm wasn&#8217;t that sore, although I did keep taking ibuprofen. The rest of my body was pretty sore from all the muscles I was using to hold up my torso since I couldn&#8217;t do it with my arms.<\/p>\n<p>I think it was about 60 miles all together, which gave me some relaxing time to enjoy the scenery, chat, and think.

Previously I amounted small talk to discussing the weather while awkwardly waiting for someone else to intervene. I&#8217;ve been thinking and practicing keeping my emotions in check and filtered. I know I usually tell people that they should feel free and comfortable being open with me, so that makes me a bit of a hypocrite. But overall I think the brutality of my own emotions affects those who haven&#8217;t grown accustomed to me too much, and perhaps may therefore be for the best.<\/p>\n<p>I should be getting to work. Having one arm is no excuse for sitting around at home being emo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a test to see how well I can function typing with the left arm casted.
