Got a “thumb incident” today by clipping my thumb on the side of the door (the side with the hinges!). somehow, it reminded me of the song by black eye peas. just substitute “the hump” with “the thumb”..

anyway, i had to use my left hand to brush my teeth for the moment. it’s such a bizarre experience. the left hand just has no clue what to do. so it tries to mimic the right hand with the up-down and the side-to-side movement. it got so difficult that the head starts bobbing up-down/side-to-side to sync with the hand movement to compensate for the lack of strength. if all this sounds too technical… it all happened unconciously! i found it funny at first, but surprised as well at the body’s response. we should really trust our body more…
