Ergonomics!

"Using my new keyboard shelf. This is fantastic. My arms are right by my side and my shoulders and the back of my arms are relaxed. I’d like to find a program that can test how quickly I can type. I'd also like to figure out what I’m doing with my life. I’d like to get involved and fix things. Maybe I can join the neighborhood council. I should look into that. I can’t believe how nice this shelf is. It’s totally so much better. ALSO, I can’t believe I actually installed it myself!! Boo-ya! Who’s awesome?? I'm awesome. And it only took me an hour and fifteen minutes to get done!!! Sigh…."

- Written Sunday 9/27/08 @ 9:45pm after miraculously attaching a twenty-pound Ikea keyboard shelf to the bottom of my desk with the aid of only a power screw driver and my wits. So positive in that moment...maybe I should attempt to do manual labor more often...although any future impulse to use the phrase "boo-ya" should be immediately dismissed.
