Numbness in finger/ making intelligent decisions about women

I've been out of action for two weeks now on guitar playing and comics because I have a repetitive motion injury in my left index finger.  It's still pretty numb, and I have a hard time telling whether it is gradually getting better or not.  I think the injury results more from the drawing than the guitar playing.  The other night I noticed that the numbness conformed to the exact areas where I held a pencil in my left hand.  Mostly on the index finger, but also a little on the thumb and the middle finger.

In other news.  My learned ability to make intelligent decisions about women in my world continues unabated.  Anyone with my history with women should make it their goal to learn how to make intelligent decisions about women before they talk of love, girlfriends, or relationships.  Talk of love, girlfriends, and relationships for someone with poor decision making skills in these areas doesn't make sense, because that kind of talk leads to making poor choices of prospective love interests.  An inappropriate love interest does not lead to anything any good for such a person.

I've encountered new, very attractive women in my world, but I'm not filled with the usual apprehension about such things.  I believe the reason I'm not filled with the usual apprehension stems from the notion that I'm more confident that I will make intelligent decisions about such women should the time come to do so.
