Walking in A Randooomdumdooomdoooom Wonderland & Into 2008

[arw]

my wrist still hurts. Yesterday was miserable, I could hardly move it at all. It was my last day at WM so I took off after about 2 hours. It was dead, no stock, and I couldn't move my right hand so I said "see ya!" and left for good. The store manager reminded me that he'll take me back anytime and will help me in AZ if I do decide I need a part time job and want to work for WM again. That was nice of him. So anyways I ran some errands and then got to school by 4 to make my chocolate box. My hand hurt so band I thought I was going to cry. But it was for a graded item so I had to fight through the pain. I think I could have done a lot better job on what I made but it's good enough. We had to make 2 confections (truffles, bon bons, etc) and a box made out of chocolate. But it was tough to get done, especially since I had filagree work all over the box. It's not fun trying to pipe something when you can't squeeze a bag without pain, and chocolate is the easiest thing in the world to work with. Tylenol helped but not for the whole night.

Anyways........I'll post pics in my journal later on. My parents want me to make fajitas for dinner tonight but I'm scared to try to hold a knife. It's getting better but every so often I move to quickly and I just want to cry all over again

 

[kellyahern]

Did you get it x-rayed (just in case)?

 

[arw]

no. One of my managers at my other job told me I should have gone that day. I guess a similar thing happened to her and she had a muscle tear

That had to feel like torture at times with your hand hurting. If it doesn't get better or swell I'd go see about it.

 

[shari schultz]

Sorry the wrist/hand haven't improved .
I am with everyone else......get it checked out /thus endeth the advice from the fracture queen *wears crown not so proudly*

 

[arw]

it does feel better with every round of Tylenol I take. I had some after dinner and then passed out for 3 whole hours It's really stiff but I don't have the horrible pain I had yesterday when I woke up. I'm going to try to not do much with it until school on Monday. If it still hurts by then I'll get it checked out.

Good evening Randoomers

Sorry about the wrist ARW ~ sends ice

I had yummy Chinese food for dinner tonight

 

[arw]

well...... I basically just got up about a 1/2 hour ago I went to take a nap at 6ish last night and pretty much stayed there other than a few moments of being online. My wrist feels soooooooo much better now that I haven't used it. It's still stiff but not as bad and I don't have any pain when I move it. Just a little strain I guess.

 

[shari schultz]

wow.

 

[Doozer61]

 

[kellyahern]

Weeeeeeeeeee, that was fun!

Now, time for bed.

 

[shari schultz]

at least the Packers lost to the future Super Bowl Champs

 

[arw]

wow.

yes

 

[fah]

I'm on my break right now and only managed to see the last 90 seconds of the Super Bowl and missed Tom Petty

But on the plus side we ordered Indian food at work tonight and was beyond yummy

 

[arw]

missed Tom Petty

lucky you. I sat through his entire rotten performance. You didn't miss anything. I was surprised at how horrid he sounded.

Oh no ~ he's so great live normally

How's the wrist and shouldn't you be sleeping

Time to go back to work

 

[shari schultz]

2 things wrong with right now:
1. I am wide awake and posting here. I have been awake since three.
2. I flipped on the tv and we have a winter storm watch for Tues/Weds.. Five to nine inches of snow

 

[Lila64]

That sucks shari
Hope you can get some sleep.
Hope the snow is not too bad, not that I'd know anything about snow

Glad you are feeling better arw!
Watched the Super Bowl here by myself. Wasn't rooting for either team. Thought it was a good game!

Oh and Schmeg, got your message a few pages back. I wasn't trying to burn anything purchased from iTunes. I may try & download that program later in the week when I have time to mess around with it, whenever that might be...






Off to bed here

 

[kellyahern]

I'm wiped out today. Watching that game was fun, but now I feel like I need to go home and sleep more of it off

 

[fah]

I'm finally going to bed

Nighty night

 

[arw]

I do not want to go out today! The snow is getting heavy. So far nothing around here is closing so I doubt my school will close. All of the schools outside of the Twin Cities are starting close. I should leave soon and avoid as much traffic as possible. I don't have to be there until 6:30 so I think that will give me plenty of time Watch I'll leave now and by the time I get there, school will have been called off for the day

 

[arw]

this is bad....I just looked up something online and discovered the unthinkable

There's not one single Caribou Coffee store anywhere in Phoenix. My life will not be the same without caramel coolers. Starbucks is not the same

 

[Doozer61]

it'll be okay.

 

[shari schultz]

A skinny cinnamon dolce latte from Starbucks is quite tasty

I bought Jelly Babies from WM today ...................now Dr. Who just needs to pop in.

 

[Schmeg]

I'm wiped out today. Watching that game was fun, but now I feel like I need to go home and sleep more of it off

It was fun to watch for like 8 minutes of the 4th quarter. And then it was sad. And it's very hard to live in Colts Nation right now.

It's okay...mourn! I called home and apparently my dad is inconsolable. He hasn't cried over sports since 1986, but I think the Pats, the Sox, and now the freakin' Celtics have gotten him back into it again, only to break his heart.

 

[Schmeg]

In other sports news...I just got Red Sox and Reds tickets for my birthday! We'll be in Boston in May for the Brewers and then we got this Sunday season package for the Reds! Bronson Arroyo...Manny...Lowell...Yoooooooooukilis...

 

[shari schultz]

^how is your dad doing healthwise? Was he going to have surgery?

 

[shari schultz]

Da Brewers!
