Good thing I'm left-handed

Am I the only person who walks around for two weeks with a broken hand? Am I the only person who convinces herself that it's not broken despite the intense pain, and really, who breaks their hand on an apple-peeler-corer-slicer?

Yes, I have a fracture. Yes, I finally saw the doctor only because I promised my Gazelle friends on Monday that I would. Fortunately, the break is healing in alignment. My doc wants me to see a hand specialist, but I don't really see a need for that (Zaundra, just ignore that I wrote that). I'll get one of those black hand/wrist splints, and be gentle with my hand. It's my right hand, so it hasn't been so bad. But of course, it's a right-handed world (you true lefties know exactly what I'm talking about).

It really does feel so much better than it did...

  • In cricket you bat on the left. Except if you're left handed like me, then you bat on the right.

  • I once limped around on a fractured ankle for two weeks. Ended up in a cast from the knee down for 4 weeks. :o/ Seems we both suffer from the same kind of denial. :D
