I'm somewhat able to type again. And I really mean that. I've had carpal tunnel for the past 2 years. Since the start of November, something went horribly wrong and I started getting insane pain along both arms. It got bad enough they couldn't touch anything and I couldn't lift something light.

Well, on the 10th, I met an honest to stars miracle worker doctor who fixed me in minutes. Two injections, one on each arm. That's all it took. It turns out I have a rare condition, CRPS type 2 caused by carpal tunnel. He injected specific nerves with numbing agents and steroids. Over the next 6 weeks it'll get easier and easier to use my wrists again. But in those first ~5 hours after the injection, I felt amazing. A mountain of pain lifted from my head, and with it, anger, impatience, emotional shutdown...ness. So I know this is the right path.

For the time being though I'm nowhere near recovered. I'm typing this with one paw. My right one is still waaaaaay worse than my left one. I can type in short bursts but not for very long, and nothing along the lines of coding or modeling. So my commissions are still on hiatus.

Oh yeah, I've also got nose surgery coming up January 3rd. That's right, I succeeded! The preparation seems pretty simple. As with any surgery, the hardest part is gonna be taking the IV, which is over in a few seconds. It isn't going to magically fix everything on its own, but this surgery will help massively. Let me be the first to say I'm looking forward to not having a giant hole in my septum that needs to be coated in medical rinse every day.
