Several folks asked about my arm, now that we're in Thailand and I can afford health care.

After an initial brow-furrowing of on the part of Dr. Nedi (one of the 1000+ docs at unequivically the finest medical institution I've set able-or-limping foot in; its lobbies rank amongst the swankiest hotel foyers I've seen), technology cleared up any concern about the number of pieces I'm in. The minor mishap off Lanikai beach simply did some tendon damage that made for unsettling noises and a gradual but thorough self-repair process.
