Stupid idiot that I am

Hi All,

We had a party last, and we got some of those 4 foot long burrito's from Una Mas. They come in these long cardboard tube type things.

When it was time to serve them, I whipped out the trusty box cutter to trim the sides, and promptly sliced off the pads on my middle and ring fingers, my fretting hand. Being the macho (synonym for stupid) guy that I am, I wrapped my fingers in paper towel & continued with the cutting. I did not cut my self again.

It took 30 minutes for the bleeding to stop enough to put bandaids on. A boy about 6 years old watched me put on the bandaids, and he commented that I was putting on Hello Kitty bandaids. Which I was, as I have a daughter.

The moral of this story: Don't let kids watch you put on bandaids.

Later,

edg

Meh, cutting yourself with a box cutter is general purpose man-stupid. Hell, I cut my stomach open with a box cutter when using a power drill with Philips bit to tighten the screw on one after replacing the blade. Serving food with freshly wounded fingers wrapped in nothing but a paper towel, on the other hand.... I just hope those kids never work in the restaurant industry with that kind of teaching about hygiene.

At least the Hello Kitty bandages will work just fine when fretting, regardless of how silly they look. Plus they'll be an effective reminder to anyone who feels the need to pick on you about them when they get a close up just before getting poked in the eyes with them.

I work in a childrens hospital and I can't tell you how many times I've made it home and found a couple of bandaids still in my pocket.

We have a fairly substantial stock of cartoon bandaids at my house from that. We have (at least): Garfield, Hello Kitty, Barbie, Tazmanian Devil, Dora the Explorer, Daffy Duck, and who knows what all else.
