What a perfect end to this day...

I was in the middle of a rather long post, talking about the both the physical and emotional issues I was going through today, when my computer went down. So that post is lost and I don't have in it me to retype the entire message right now.

However, since I know there are people who read this journal, I know of at least two other than me, I don't want to leave this without saying anything. Let me see if I can touch on some of the "highlights" of the lost post...

First, I woke up with a headache, a backache, and pain in my wrists and forearms. The pain in my arms is from a repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). I had written a long explanation of RSIs, but the short form is think of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome... That is an RSI defined by an injury to a specific injury to a specific nerve. Mine is very similar, but the injury is to different nerves in different locations. Still nerve injuries caused by working at a computer, with similar symptoms.

Second, my emotional state was miserable with occasional fits of anger. Right now I am feeling down because I lost the earlier post, which is making it hard to describe my earlier state of mind so I am going to stop there.

Each of these things was feeding the other and making my reactions throughout the day that much stronger.

That is about as much as I can bring myself to re-write tonight.

I hope your day was better than mine.
