Cut myself badly tonight, trying to get a slab off of the whole leg of serrano ham propped up on its stand upon the kitchen table. It toggled a little, I tried to stabilise it with my right hand, slipped with the real sharp knive in my left and cut my right thumb deep. I actually felt the knive hit the bone. Blood everywhere. I bled into the sink for a while, got dizzy. My general plan was to wrap it up tight and nice. End of story. But my sweetheart had a closer look and decided to better have a doctor look at this. Right he was. Now, a long wait at the emergency room, three horrible shots and a couple of stiches later, thumb in a metal case and all wrapped up, typing comes slow with just one hand. At least I was provided with lots of painkillers. Guess, the shots will wear off pretty soon.

One response to “cut”
ok people: it was the other left. seemingly too shaken still after all that havok, when I wrote this entry. I cut my left thumb. Still no good, thought. At least I get the metal thingy off tomorrow…
