Your right forefinger must be burning!!
Not the finger, but my wrist was hurting at the end of the shoot during the parade. As a software engineer I first developed tendinitis in my right wrist at age 19. I have mostly dealt with it by switching to a good trackball and using my left hand for mousing. But periodically the wrist pain comes back. Yesterday was one of those days, after taking one shot every 12 seconds on average. It doesn't help that I play piano and harpsichord too and have been doing so a lot lately due to a recital last week.
I wished they had a left-handed camera for a moment during the shoot ;-) If anyone made it, it would probably be Pentax. Maybe with the vertical grip there is a way to shoot with the left hand, but I haven't tried it yet.
That makes for my crazy new product idea of the day : left-hand + vertical battery grip
