Get Ready!
October 13th, 2005
I’ve been tagged…twice. Yeeshola, I tell you!
Here’s the first, from my beloved Mireille at C’est Chic (by the way, when you see her blog name, you must do as I do and sing, “aaaaaaAAAAHH! Freak OUT! Le Freak , C’est Chic!” It’s pat, I know, but rather fun, yes?)
So, here are the rules, as outlined to me:
1. Go into your archive. 2. Find your 23rd post. 3. Find the fifth sentence (or closest to). 4. Post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions. 5. Tag five other people to do the same.
Welp, that day wasn’t a good one. My fifth sentence, in the post titled, “Certainly Sir!” was pretty much all about the three pinched nerves I had in my left arm. At the time, I was quite, quite certain that I had some sort of deadly disease, or at least a tremendously debilitating one. Without further adieu, the fifth line of my 23 post:
“My work certainly suffered, since I would type, then rest, then type, then rest.”
As I read it now, it kind of shows me how fucked up I was – I was worried about my WORK instead of whether MY ARM WAS FUNCTIONING PROPERLY or whether I WAS DYING OF SOME HORRIBLE DISEASE.
A new state, new day, NEW LEAF, I tell you!
I can’t tag people for this one. I may, but for now, I will break the rules, and the cycle. But tomorrow? OH, THERE WILL BE TAGGING.

I’m so glad about you leaving that place.

That IS pretty messed up. Poor your arm.

Yikes, it is amazing you didn’t leave sooner given the stress you must have been smothered by. A new leaf seems to be making the best difference already in your life.
And I like that you are undertaking the tag game as some sort of implied weapon of vengeance. Hee.

I join kate in being glad you moved on down the road … that place sucked the life out of you. And you’ve got a lot of writing to get done. ♥

So what happened to the arm anyhow – I remember the initial discussions on MUA? (’tis daruma here)
