I've started to feel pain and numbness in my right hand for a couple weeks. Occasionally, there would be intense pain long my middle finger to my arm and all the way back to the shoulder. It's really scary. The pain would be so bad I couldn't type at all. My friend Matt referred me to his chiropractor. She's been treating me regularly 2 times a week, stretching out my arm and my shoulder, opening up my injured ribs and muscles. She said the injury is common among keyboard users with long time bad posture. I have to start focus on how I sit and type, take short breaks and stretches fingers and arms frequently. It's an experience that made me realize how important it is to take care of your health. I could have been permanently injured and wouldn't be able to type. Catching it early, treatment and a change in working habit is the key.

My little bird wants attention all the time. If I don't give it to him, here's what typically happens...

I bought a ladder to allow my bird to get back to his cage if he ever gets spook and lands on the floor. However, he uses to it to climb down and wreak havod instead. Sometimes, when he needs daddy attention, he just climbs down and walk over to me and chews on my toes. He's so much fun but can be a handful.

I finally went back to Vietnam to visit for 3 weeks during Christmas. It was a great vacation. I was so happy to see my family. My two nephews are a hoot.

I went to Monterey Bay for the Labor Day weekend. It was nice weather all along. Beautiful scenes and plenty of good food. I did kayaking for the first time on the beach. Kayaking was easier than I thought and it was hella fun. Got to see the pelicans, ducks, otters, seals, starfish up close. Here is a video (85Mb) of the pics I took

I woke up to a screeching noise by Tarzan, my white-capped pionus. I found him on the floor, disoriented. He didn't seem to recognize me as he lunged at me trying to attack when I came to pick him up. The poor soul was shivering. I put him back up on his cage, worried and wasn't sure what to do. Tarzan is a tough bird but for the moment, he appeared helpless and scared to death. Something must have spooked him. I tried to console him to no avail. Then I asked if he wanted a treat. The word "treat" is a trigger word for Tarzan. He always gets excited to hear it. That word surely brought him back to reality and he soon recognized me. Though not completely regained his confident, he responded to my voice. I gave him a peanut but he was still too frightened to enjoy it. I wonder if he had a nightmare.

O-Ren Ishii: You didn't think it was gonna be that easy, did you?
The Bride: You know, for a second there, yeah, I kinda did.
O-Ren Ishii: Silly rabbit. Trix are for kids.

That was from Kill Bill vol. 1, one of my favorite quotes from the awesome movie. I was thinking about this line when I got the news about my being moved to a more challenging team. It was suprising since I just joined the company not too long ago. It's gonna be more fun now, as someone puts it elegantly: "Kick ass"
