crochet hiatus

i'm taking a break from crocheting. i've got an octopus with one tentacle and a baby toy that's just starting to take shape ... but i've also got some irritated carpal tunnel in my right wrist that's slowing me down. i worked up some sample squares last weekend that i think did me in. one of them was single crochet with a small hook, and i didn't realize how tightly it was working up until i was done. looking at it now, i'm not surprised my wrist is hurting. a few days of rest will do it well.

i learned last week that my laptop came preloaded with a trial version of Plants v. Zombies. one of the guys at work has it on his ipod, and he had asked me awhile ago if i played it. i was intrigued, but not enough to go looking for it. and then i found it on my laptop, and of course i fell in love. it makes me want to get the pattern for a crocheted pea shooter. but then, i'm not crocheting right now, right? :)
