Addicting PowerBall… Can't stop… Destroying wrist…
Today, I got myself a PowerBall with a speedometer (not from that web site, they’re way too expensive, I got an older model from a cheaper swedish store), and I just beat my personal best.
It’s way below the WR, but I’m kind of proud anyway. I got the little thing up to 9783 rpm. It’s kind of hard on the wrist, but it’s recommended as rehab for RSI, so I guess it just does me good… ;)
Now, I have to continue beating my personal best. 10000 rpm next, or what do you think? :P

P.S. Ugh, it was a long time since I blogged last time… I just didn’t have anything to write about :/
Update (Dec 16 2005) :
OK, I got it up to 9883, but I think it has given me RSI or something, because I have a lot of pain in my wrist… I think I’ve inherited my father’s weak wrists… I’ll just keep the damn ball away from my right hand for a while, and see if it gets better. :/ My left hand record is exactly 7100, I just (22:37) managed to do that.
It doesn’t help that two of my classmates can get it up to 10000+, the class record currently is 11478.
Update 2 (Dec 18 2005) :
The pain in my right wrist is practically gone (it just hurts when I hold my hand in a strange position), and using the PowerBall makes it go away even faster… Thus, we have proven that PowerBalls work as rehabilitation for the new phenomenon “PowerBall-wrist”… Strange.
Anyway, I also just got a new left hand record: a little over 7500 (I forgot it while starting to write this, and it wasn’t saved…)
Update 3 (Jan 5 2006) :
I deciced to try the little fella again, and after a few tries, I managed to get it up to 10301, FINALLY over 10000! :D
