if your squeamish, look away...

no joke, what you're about to see is pretty damn disgusting. yesterday i made the mistake of drinking too many glasses of wine before i even started dinner. i'm being honest here...too much wine can be a bad thing, especially when handling sharp kitchen utensils, you know, like a KNIFE!
would you believe i found the missing piece in that pile of onions?

i was just trying to be nice by cooking my sister a nice dinner, and this crap happens! after a quick clean up, bandage, and another glass of wine we managed to get dinner finished. thanks to my sister and Jess for helping me actually prepare dinner, because this one handed stuff is hard.

Shrimp & Lemon Pasta
YUMMO!

today when i woke up the pain was unbearable. i made the mistake of not putting any ointment on the bandage before going to bed, so when i woke up this morning the whole thing was stuck. it was the kind of pain that makes you want to vomit and then pass out. thankfully i have a friend who's a nurse and she came over to assist (thanks Kat for the searing peroxide pain). this has got to be one of the nastiest things i've done. i'm warning you now, if you are easily disturbed by the sight of bloody things, then  i don't recommend reading anymore...







my poor finger nail is gone



but on a lighter note, today is my sister's birthday. and poor her (one who is easily grossed out) has to take care of gimpy me...

Happy Birthday E

Ashley... I'm not so sure what to think about that finger picture: that's pretty damn sick. I think the "squeamish" disclaimer should be a little more in one's face because the first picture's a tad non descript; I let my guard down saying "That's not so bad," then you slam that last one without warning. That is yuck. Very yuck. Very very yuck.
