The Correspondents Dinner is on CSPAN right now.
Grrrr for the not cable having.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

C-Span has a live stream on their site. Woot!
today's goal: get clothes organized
I am showered and fed. Now off to get laundry started.
Hey, that's my goal for the day too. Well, that and budget stuff for May.
Go us!
(assuming I get off the sofa, I mean.)
Grr. Trekked out in the rain to my class only to find the building locked up tight, and other people standing around saying the instructor had already come and gone on finding the place closed. 'Twas okay, though, because I took the opportunity to go for a run in the rain instead of grabbing the bus back home. Still, frustrating.
I went to yoga, went to the grocery store, forgot the cat treats I need to hide Chumley's medication in, went to the bookstore next door, then came home and collapsified for a while. There may be yard work in my immediate future....
Spidra, if your RSI is well diagonosed (meaning that you know approximately where the nerves are damaged (not neccesarily where the pain is) a physical therapist might help. While it would be better to do multiple visits a good physical therapist may be able to provide excercises that will help. If you explain that insurance is not paying and that this will be your only visit a good one might even provide both initial excercises and ways to raise the intensity as you improve. Also state law on insurance varies; so if you are currently insured the "no coverage for pre-existing conditions" thing may expire after a time depending on the law in your particular state.
Thanks, Typo. I'm uninsured right now. If I get this UC job, I may have somewhere to go. I have bilateral Thoracic Outlet Syndrome so I know exactly what's going on. I have to admit I'm also to blame for not being good enough about doing the stretches and exercises I already know to do.
I'd like to ask Mr. & Mrs. Colbert for Stephen's hand in marriage.
Well you will probably have to pay for RSI related stuff yourself during the first N months; even group insurance often (though not always) excludes pre-exisitng conditions. However stretche s can help a lot. The nice thing about getting them from a PT is that you might get some that give you immediate pain relief (as opposed to just long term). That is hell of an incentive to do them. Do your stretchs and you hurt less right away. If you can come up with the money for one PT session it may be worth it; but make it an excercise session not a PT - cause one PT session is temporary relief, but the right excercises can help reduce your pain forever.
