Must be getting old. I was in the kitchen and I just flipped a bit of crud off my fingers into the sink. They was a faint pop sound and all of a sudden the index finger was off at a funny angle. It didn't get better so next day I went to see my doctor. Got there about nine o'clock. Did some Xrays, nothing's broken, got set up to see a hand surgeon in Concord (hour and a half drive). Surgeon looked at it. The tendon that runs over the knuckle tore out of its groove. Only fix is splint the finger and wait FOUR WEEKS for it to heal. With the splint in place. Arrgh.
So now I am learning to do one handed, all kinds of things that I always used two hands to do. Including typing.
Note to self. Don't wave hands rapidly. Something might break off.
