Time for a new solution to wrist aches
Over time, you noticethe decayless.
Not so much anymore.
It’s dead, of course.

You know it’s dead.
you might live with this.
It’s become an unconscious process, brushing away the flecks of gel which cling to your clothes.

Like scratching an itch, you only realise afterwards what your arm has just done.
Honestly, I think it’s time to bin this mousepad.
Any comfort that this tattered slab of gel, foam, and fabric provides is more mental than physical.
It offers familiarity, not support.
That’s nice, and I’m grateful, but it’s not enough.
It’s probably time to recognise a wrist rest was a workaround, not a solution.
Time for something new: an ergonomic tilted mouse, maybe even a vertical mouse.
