100 Posts in 100 Days: Day 90

On the mend. Didn't post yesterday because it hurt to type more than a sentence or two.

I lucked out with work--I had managed to finish up one job, and the other job I was working on actually involved working with images rather than needing any amount of typing, meaning I could rest my arm on a pillow and just use the mouse for the most part.

Still can't open pill bottles, I can't grip yet, so Ben will have to open the bottle so I can take my allergy medicine.

Got our MegaMillions ticket, not that we expect to win or anything. I was kind of bemused at the news stories asking "why do people buy tickets when the jackpot is high even though they know they aren't going to win?"

Seems to me the answer is much, much simpler than the theories I've seen. You're paying a dollar to participate in a social event, it's that simple. You're buying a dollar's worth of entertainment. From that perspective, while winning of course would be fantastic, the final outcome doesn't really matter, but during the frenzy, you were very entertained and for a bargain price.

Back to work now. Jquery and javascript. BLEAH!
