Carolyn wanted me to take a picture of her hands. The left one was the one that had been numbed for hours due to her shoulder surgery. As the anaesthetic wore off, the swelling in her hand and arm went down. It was a little bizarre to watch. I can only imagine how bizarre it was to feel.

It bothers me how veiny my hands and feet are. My left hand is much worse than the right hand, and my right foot is more veiny than the left one. I get obsessed over silly things.
[UPDATE]
So, about 5 years after I took this picture, and after a steep decline in health, my uh, "vascular prominence" was declared as one of many symptoms of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which also accounted for the dislocating joints, chronic fatigue, and heart problems. It's good to have a diagnosis and some care now, but I could have done without being told I was a hypochondriac for going to the doctor with pain all the time.
