The klutz that I am has been at it again.

At forty-something you'd think I'd remember before closing the sliding door, to to make sure that all parts of my body are on the same side of the door jam, wouldn't you?

Nope. Caught my thumb in the door yesterday right at the base joint. The good news is, the joint does work. The bad is the thumb keeps swelling and going numb.

And what am I doing? I'm opting to err on the side of embarassed stupidity and will wait a few days to see if it improves before involving my doctor.

I know that contusions do swell for a few days after, so I'm trying not to rack up any expenses unnecessarily. And, it isn't showing any bruising, so yea that.

I'm also experienced with broken digits, as those are the only breaks I've experienced...all on the same (dominant) hand.

So, the upshot is, I'll be she of little words and many emoticons for a bit while I try to rest it a bit.
