hello kind readers, as i type this, i’m actually audio recording it because, over the weekend, i fractured my wrist, so i’m quite literally up to my elbow in a cast. i’m going to have to dictate my post text into my phone and then cut and paste the text into substack, so if there are typos, i do apologize. hopefully, i get this cast off soon! i look like a mummy on my left arm, so i can only type with one finger on my right hand — hardly ideal. i had already started writing this blog post and a few others i’ll post this week before my injury, and i’m going to try to keep posting if it’s not too crazy difficult to do with one hand. this is all a bit experimental for the moment, so please bear with me. ugh, life’s little surprises!
