Typing one handed

[bladespark]

I am high as a kite right now, but it is not for a good reason. Well, I guess maybe being high on pain pills because you are in pain is better than being high because you are an addict. Anyhow, what happened was that I got a huge glob of hot glue on the tip of my finger, and as is usually the best course, I pulled it off immediately to keep it fom burning more, but it took the skin under it off with it. So there is a spot just smaller than a dime on the tip of my left ring finger with no skin on it, which has also been burned. It hurts like HELL, just washing it with saline literally made me cry, but now I have happy fun pills, so everything is good.

Needless to say, as I can't do much work one-handed, things are going to be delayed for a little while, but hopefully I'll be at least able to do something in a day or two.

So long as the pills last, my main problem is that doing things one handed is annoying and I can't sew. :P

Oh btw, I think I'm ready to mail your easter box. I got grass today, and everything else. :)

[harliquinnraver.livejournal.com]

oh jeez! i need to finish yours on monday (next monday, not today). is that alright?

[bladespark.livejournal.com]

sure! It's not like I have a deadline or anything

[harliquinnraver.livejournal.com]

thats true XD
can you hang onto mine until ive finished yours? also, did we decide on a spending limit or like, a rough 'easter basket/box' size? what should i be aiming for?

[bladespark.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. I don't think we decided exactly. I know we agreed on at least one plush and some candy. I've spent I guess around $20? I have got stuff all over so it's not on one receipt. :) I'm not fussed though, whatever you want to send is good.

Oh, do remember to send the ponies with it though! :D I'm sure you would remember, but I have to say it anyhow. :)

[harliquinnraver.livejournal.com]

the ponies are already in a box with your name on it! :D

Ouch.

I use five-minute epoxy for most of my work. No idea if it'd suit your tasks, but at least it isn't hot.

It's brittle, is the problem I have. Brittle glue on flexing surface isn't good. Though actually it might serve well for one or two uses...

[derakon.livejournal.com]

Ah, yeah, my stuff doesn't have to flex. Oh well.

I hate hot glue for that reason.

I'll take some of those *good* pills.

Aiyee! :O I'm cringing, shuddering, and making faces right now just thinking about it.

I hope it gets to the barely-painful stage soon!

As I read, I was expecting it to go "...huge glob of hot glue on the tip of my finger, and as is usually the best course, I pulled it off immediately to keep it fom burning more, but it took the fingernail off with it..."

So it could be worse!
