not broken
according to the x-rays taken yesterday, my right hand is not in fact broken. however, i have been advised of the important safety tip--
if you are washing an item of heavy crockery and if that item slips do not attempt to catch it, just let it go. since i didn't actually catch it, instead it landed on my hand and smashed that into the stainless steel sink. oops.
hand is still only semi-functional, thus loss of caps key. rest/ice/elevate/tylenol regime and wait a few days to see if it improves. it's not particularly painful but certain motions feel really weird and although visible bruising is minimal there are parts that hurt to touch.
and did i mention that i've just started the busiest time of the month at the dayjob? lots of programs to run, databases to update, and othe misc typing in my future....
