Monday, September 19, 2005 BEANER FALL DOWN. GO BOOM. GET OUCHES. I’ve really had a run of stupid accidents over the course of the last week. For example:Metal spoon + simmering pot of something + distracted by kids = Sleeping with hand in bucket of ice all night 40lb bag of water softener salt + not a good grip while pouring into softener = possible broken pinky Securely mounted shelf + not paying attention to said shelf location while bending over to pick up something = world record bump on noggin Stupid staplers that bend staple ends out instead of in + just plain dumb luck = one nice ripped open finger Window caulk + stucco finish + need to smooth caulk with fingers = no more finger prints for me (possible new line of work in the criminal field) Round utility knife + new blade + unleveled desk = puncture wound to the thigh And finally: Recycled, crushed loose concrete + steep embankment + too lazy to walk down path + fist size rock in just the right place = ewwwwww. Uh excuse me, a little sympathy here….*sniff*. posted by me | 4:22 PM | 9 comments Comments: Post a Comment Oh Collen, you poor thing. Are you a lefty? I am and I swear we're just more accident prone. # posted by babyjewels : 9/20/2005 7:35 AMNo. Not a lefty. I have no excuse. Wow, that sounds like a record number of accidents. Some of those are truly cringe-inducing, especially the staple one and the puncture wound. Hopefully it will all balance out and you will be gliding around gracefully for the next month! # posted by Christine : 9/21/2005 8:51 AMI'm trying not to imagine what you are implying by where that last well-placed rock ended up. Ewwwww indeed. # posted by dan : 9/21/2005 10:59 AMThat is the sickest bruise I've ever seen! And when I say sickest I mean it in the best way possible. It's like twice the size now, bright purple and still warm to the touch 4 days later! Oddly, it doesn't hurt at all. This one time I had a really horrible bruise on my arm and I shaved my arm just so I could see it better. That was stupid. But it was an awesome bruise. i can sympathize. i got burned by a meat thermometer last night. the glass top where you read the temp is big and hid the fact that the rest of it is metal and just came out of a 500 degree oven.
