My left ring finger happened to be in the center of the bagel I was slicing. I think I sawed twice through it before the pain made it all the way to higher processing and I dropped the bagel in the sink. Eww.

ow ow ow ow ow.

I hate mornings.

I'm now at work. tappita-tappita-tappita. trying to decide whether to use that finger or not. Hmm.

See. Accidents happen when one does not how to properly cut a bagel.

How to:
1. lay the bagel flat
2. hold the bagel firmly but not hard with the palm of your hand
3. cut along the bagel while the knife blade is flat and parallel with the surface on which the bagel lies

Is the finger ok? I just got a message from a banjo player that had to amputate after a run-in with a log chipper... YIKES! Scary.

yipes!

I was actually typing with it by midday, though with the odd 'youch!' when i somehow hit it _just_ wrong.

Not really that bad: slice is a little over a half-inch long, and about a millimeter deep at its deepest. I think. I wasn't really prying it apart to be sure; that's just what was obvious. But it's a hell of a way to start the day, especially with an insane programming deadline. :/

eeeks. That is a poor start. Hopefully the bagel and coffee made up for it. Good bagel?

Well, I dropped that one in a pile of nasty dishes in the sink. But the next one was tasty.

Owie :(

I cut the fleshy webbing part between my thumb and index finger once because I was cutting a bun to make a sandwich for my dad. I made it all the way through the bun, and then out the other side, which is where the knife found my hand :P. And all because I was trying to be a helpful kid.

Re:

:heh: When I was ... 4? 5? I used to love doing dishes. Cut my hand on a knife and never really got back into the hang of it until I moved out on my own. ;)

i can see we are not on the same page here. or the same episode of a particular show rather.

If that's meant euphemistically, then likely. If that's meant literally, then even more likely. I do not know most shows, and particular episodes even more. (even more? I should sleep soon. even more.)
