Sturgeon's Law

This is going to be a short post, and you'll see why. I'd been experiencing some numbness in fingers on my left hand, so I called my dad, who quickly diagnosed me with ulnar nerve compression (like carpal tunnel but a different nerve and different fingers). We easily pinpointed it to the fact that I changed my typing posture recently because I bought a new computer desk--also to the fact that my sleep position is woeful on my left elbow. So I'm correcting both those things, but my fingers (pinkie and ring) aren't better yet, and I'm not sleeping well because I now can't bend my left elbow when I sleep. Ack.

Also, thanks to Comics Curmudgeon, here's a fun and relevant edition of one of my three or so favorite comic strips:

Edited to add: That's Pearls Before Swine, in case you don't know.
