The right and the left...

From time to time lately I've had pain in my wrist when using my mouse. A common problem, I know. Any suggestions what to do about it?

I've tried to use my left hand instead; that works pretty well, and is probably good for my left hand, which still suffers some numbness from the elbow replacement. It's a little slow and clumsy, but actually not difficult at all.

I could rest the right hand on a cushion.

I could stop using the computer so much... No, no, I couldn't do that!

Game of Thrones: Winter is Coming..

This afternoon I watched the first four episodes again with lunacy_gal, Chris, Janet, and Tasia.

Enjoyed it again so very much. Again, admired the production values, the costuming, and the good acting - especially from Maisie Williams, who plays eleven-year-old Arya, and Isaac Hempstead-Wright, who plays ten year old Bran Stark.

It was interesting seeing how the plot fits together, seeing episodes all in a row. I'd forgotten about the scene between Tryion an Yoren on the wall - and then couldn't remember who Yoren was when we see him again in episode 8. Have we seen Qhorin Halfhand? Probably not. He isn't significant in A Game of Thrones and television is pragmatic: people are only introduced if they have a part in the immediate plot.

I'm loving Tyrion more, the more I see him. And Jamie. And, well, everyone except the ones I hate. If you know the books, or the show, you probably know who I am thinking of.

Tasia has also read the books. When Walder Frey's name was mentioned in episode 4, she and I both went, "Eeuw," becuase, well, he's the worst of the worst as far as I'm concerned. (But htere are a few other contenders for that role.)

I'm impressed by Illyrio, coming up with dragon's eggs for Danaerys. Interesting that he didn't give them to Viserys.
