      It just… doesn’t work as well. Hard to describe, but it was all but useless before I went to lots of occupational therapy. I basically had to re-learn how to use my left arm. It’s about 75% now. I can do normal stuff but I have to be really careful with it. For example, if I’m holding a drink I have to be sure to focus on holding it upright, otherwise it spills. That’s a long way from being unable to type. I had to use a speech-to-text app on my computer for a while there.

        you’re like Uma Thurman in Kill Bill!

        Wiggle your big toe!

        now you just have to go exact your revenge from the assholes that put you in the hospital.

          Ha, now I just have to find out who put that tumor in there! Holding my cell phone against my head? Die, Motorola! My unventilated natural gas stove? Kiss your ass goodbye, GE!
