You only have start worrying if it comes out on the other side.

How many times do I have to tell The Sidler to stop fucking sneaking up on me?

I'm engrossed in something and he's wandering around like he does and the next thing I know he's RIGHT BEHIND ME and knocks the back of my chair or says something abruptly. I don't like that. I've told him.

Get a fucking job, Sidler Boy.

It's really goddamn cold and blowy today. Freezing my ass off as when house was built (57) nobody on earth had heard of INSULATION ffs.

That's harassment. Drop a dime on him.

I get nothing BUT harrassment here. Except sexual harrassment, which I know exactly how to deal with.

Free shipping.

Turns out someone/ something liked my overly sweet maple syrup cupcakes anyway.
Diz managed to scrounge a cake paper out of the bin (my fault for leaving it in there.) Given his recent ill health I had to wrestle it away from him, while he desperately tried to eat it - he loves paper and has a sweet tooth. I never let him get away with it, but I took more risks than usual this time *

OWWWWWWW!
Got in the way of a determined cat's jaws. The cowson punctuated me and didn't withdraw til I yowled and cuffed him.

Deep. It went deep. How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless cat. Well, not much sharper as it turns out. I bled like... hmmmm, can't think of any tasteful similes.

I have a plaster on now. When I am confident the bleeding has stopped I will show you. Won't look like much. Until infection starts.

*NB he only got 1/4 of it in the end. Crumbs and paper and all that. But at what cost? He's lost my love and respect.

Any reasonable offer accepted.

IMHO you shouldn't cover the wound. Let the venom seep out, babeh.

but when I was doing that kind of thing (dog/cat bites) was many years ago---maybe the thing to do now IS cover them.

Please at least check it out.

Sundae · 02-22-2013, 01:41 PM

Plaster off now. I had to put one on because I was bleeding everywhere.
I don't like plasters as a rule, especially on my hands, so I do take them off at the earliest opportunity.

Throbbing like a bastard though.

Griff · 02-22-2013, 01:54 PM

nausea prolly a fever as well... going to couch now

Bleeding is good. Helps flush out the yuckies.

Another thing that's good for small cuts on the hands is liquid skin. Basically glue that you put over your cuts. I don't know if they have it there, but it's wonderful because it's waterproof. So doesn't interfere with washing your hands several times a day.

DanaC · 02-22-2013, 02:41 PM

We do have it, but it's not advisable for a dog bite or cat scratch. Tril's quite right on that.

i might get me some though...I am forever slicing my finger on chopping knives when I wash the pots!

Pete Zicato · 02-22-2013, 02:42 PM

Speaking of "have it there", what in the heck is a plaster?

infinite monkey · 02-22-2013, 02:45 PM

a bandaid.

Their bandaids are unwieldy as heck! Very vintage.

DanaC · 02-22-2013, 02:55 PM

Which ones....there a thousand different brands and kinds of bandaids here. Little slivers of sticky rapid healing gel, blister plasters, giant rolls of fabric plaster (cut to size), cartoon character plasters, round plasters, plasticky plasters, gauzy little strips of plaster...washable plasters...

We do still have vintage plasters...and actually, I mostly prefer them because they offer a lot more in the way of protection from bangs and bumps to the wound.

infinite monkey · 02-22-2013, 02:58 PM

Us too!

(Bandaid is actually a brand name...one of those that stuck as product name, like Kleenex, around here.)
