My left arm started tingling. I stared curiously at it for a while, but decided it was nothing serious. But the tingling stayed with me ... until my fingers started going numb too. I started freaking out ... perhaps I had spend too much time in front of the computer (my scare with carpal tunnel's a few years ago has led me to adopt "correct" postures in front of the computer, except for my slouching) and my left arm was punishing me!

In any case, it was only a dream, but it scared me enough to try to take it easy today. Of course, that and a splitting headache was enough to push me away from the computer all day. I've put in roughly 14 hours a day in front of the computer this week, so it was bound to catch up to me. I don't think humans are meant to sit in one place and stare at a flickering monitor all day. But what do I do, I'm just a dumb kid.

Anyways, woke up with a splitting headache. This has happened before, but normally I can just work it off. Not today's headache. The little monkeys in my brain were not happy with the amount of work they had to do this past week - they kept pounding away. I gave up on work after about two hours and emailed my bosses saying I was taking the day off and went back to sleep. Woke up around 2pm, and it's a bit better, but sitting in front of this box is bothering me, so I'm forcing myself to stay away from this thing (aside from scanning items on my reading list and putting them in my "to-read" list.

But seriously, what's up with all these lies about me being posted online? What have I ever done to deserve being embarassed online?

haha. oh you silly children...

I occasionally sleep on my arm. It dies completely, absolutely limp until I move around for a minute or two.

Isn't it kinda fun to wake up with your arm dead? It feels odd.

Hmm, I think in this particular case I was sleeping on my arm for about 3 hours ... I woke up and I coouldn't feel my arm for like a whole 20 seconds. It was freaky.

I felt a tingling in my arm but that was because I had slept on it all night. It was unfortunately not a dream.

Gun show. Like Ron Burgundy from "Anchorman." XD
