Ow! in big capital letters. Some swearing, too.

I cut myself. On a freakin tin can lid. But no, just a regular cut wasn't enough for me. I had to cut about half a centimetre down starting at the tip of my thumb, as if to create a forked thumb. So now I've got a big gusher of a gash, which may require stitches. I've bandaged it up as tight as I could, and I'm leaving it alone for now. Mostly because if I went to ER I'd just have to sit for a few hours anyway, it being very non-life-threatening. I'm hoping it will be better in the morning, but I don't really know what to expect. Argh. I have to teach tomorrow too, so I can't just blow off work for a doctor.

Ow ow ow ow ow.

I resolved the "gushing blood" problem before starting work on the "I want to post about all this blood and pain" problem. :-)

Oh, so when people say they're doing "one-handed typing," that's what they mean?

There's a bunch of clumsy people on gay.com...

as Vinny observed, both our cuts occurred on our left hands... :)

It always pays to be ambidextrous...

(And my scar is on my left hand, too. I wonder if it's a gay thing.)
