Well, the room is all mine now, for better or for worse. I moved some stuff around, reorganized a bit, made the floorspace larger by pushing the beds toward the walls.
Also, with my arm hurting again, I went out on round two of my mission to find a cure. This time I focused on two aspects: Diet and posture. I went out specifically to buy a folding chair. I thought, just maybe, the fact that our desk stools don't have a back to lean against might be causing the pain. We'll see. I also bought a multi-vitamin, which was an interesting conversation. I didn't know the word for vitamin and she didn't understand English. She asked me to write down the word. She looked at the paper and then she laughed and said "汉语!" ("In Chinese!"). I glanced around and noticed some bottles that looked like they had fish oil in them, went over and noticed Vitamin A. I wasn't sure how to say "Multi" either, so I say "A 和 E..." implying a mix. She reached over and grabbed a bottle of "Vitamin A & E!" I had no idea that combination was possible! Sigh. So I said "A 和 E 和 B...." She realized what I meant and grabbed the "Multi-Vitamin" bottle.
So, what did I learn today? Folding chairs can be quite heavy if carried for more than half an hour. In China, A & E is a common vitamin blend. Oh, and...

Starfleet has to start somewhere. Who knows? By the 24th century, they could easily be making all the ships and exploring space...
