ladyofastolatAn intimate encounter took place today between my finger and a pair of scissors. I won't go into details, because when I tried to tell Pellinor the details, he went "Ewww!!" and ran away, gibbering. Suffice it to say, I have now bonded with my new workplace, by ritually sharing quite a bit of my blood with its carpet.
Library-moving one-handed is hard.
The most annoying thing is that I intended to write all evening. My typing is reduced to about a quarter of its normal speed, and I just can't write creatively at that speed. My thoughts dry up unless I can type fast enough to follow them. So that's out.
I tried my XBox game, but my injured finger is the one I need to defend myself, so my poor heroic (and, I'm afraid to say, incredibly silly-looking) ninja gets minced up very quickly by sewer demons. There's no point even trying Guild Wars or other PC games, since my injured finger is the one I need to press the "move forward" key.
Ah well. I looks like I'll be reduced to spending my evening watching pretty, floppy-haired men be heroic and angsty, in Japanese with sub-titles. What a chore.

Date: 2006-06-23 12:59 pm (UTC)I had to bandage the finger of someone who did the same thing last year, it wasn't particularly pleasant. However having cut the ends off several of my fingers while cooking, has given me plenty of practice in dealing with that sort of things. Though I find it far worse dealing with other peoples injuries rather than my own, which isn't really that helpful when you're a first aider...
Hope you didn't find the enforced anime watching too much of a chore ;-)
