Wii arm

I've heard of Wii-related injuries but I never thought I would be one of them. I bought Ravin' Rabbids this weekend and it is a very fun and interactive game. Kalani and I had a great time playing it. We played most of Sunday. After he left, Genessa and James were over so we all had a 4 player game going on. The first game was fine and I won. The second game took a little longer than we thought it would. We started at 9pm. We weren't don't until a quarter til midnight and by that time, I was a little too amped to go to bed immediately.

I didn't go to bed until almost 1am because I was also reading a book. The problem was, I couldn't fall asleep. My left forearm was hurting. A lot. It was a dull ache that went from my inside elbow down to my finger tips. I would imagine that is how carpal tunnel would have felt like because there was some numbness. I even put Icy Hot on it twice. Once before I went to bed and again at 2am when I woke up again.

Lance came home later from dropping off James and he distracted me quite wonderfully from the throbbing ache in my arm. I was able to fall asleep until my alarm came on but the ache was always in the background. Quite annoying.

Today it is not so bad.
