The swelling in my finger looks to be starting to go down, finally. It’s still quite swollen but doesn’t give the impression of a balloon ready to pop anymore, which is definitely a nice improvement. The pain has also died down, so I’m back to working on my assignment (I got a short extension, to prolong my torture). My typing is very slow with one finger not working, but Miss Meow is helping, by putting her head on the keys so I can’t reach them anyway.
