Blogger’s Bone and Tweeter’s Twitch

They said it would happen but I just didn’t believe them. Maybe I thought I was a special case. Or maybe I’m just plain delusional, but after all these years, I should have known better.

Forgetting my propensity to become addicted, I blindly forged ahead where a more cirmcumspect soul might have tread more carefully. I merrily threw caution to the winds, and blogged and twittered with gay abandon. Why am I seeing lesbians dancing around a maypole as I write?

And now I’m paying for it.

As I slapped my hand down on my laptop yesterday morn to begin the blogging day anew, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my wrist. It seems that I now have what appears to be bloggers bone, in the place formerly known as my wrist bone. See what a month of blogging straight can do to you? Get out now while you can! Yowzah, it’s not safe anywhere these days.

So, I had to drag out the ice pack and strap on the wrist support last night. Gawd, the things you acquire as you get older. And happily, it feels better today. Yet another thing to add to my steadily swelling beauty routine.

Having quelled that quasi-calamity and feeling all was right once again with my world, imagine my surprise as I opened my computer this morning. At first, I didn’t recognize it but then slowly it dawned on me. My body stopped the convulsions once I signed on to Twitter. I was encountering twitches that could only be attributed to Tweeter. (Say that 3 times fast!) Sweet jezus, I was jones-ing! Or Tweeter twitching.

It’s getting so bad that I now do it in response to the birds outside my window. Is there no help for me?

    My aches and pains from visiting cyber-space are in my right shoulder for some reason, must be age ;)

    And to think I got into this venture so be kind to my body.

    Well it goes to show that you can get too much of a good thing, including twittering — or even twitterpating.

    I haven’t gotten to the stage where my wrist hurts. The pain hasn’t traveled out of my head yet :-)
