I shouldn't be allowed to do grown up stuff.

For some reason, my father loves to put jars of sauce in the fridge. Marinara, tomato, alfredo, you name it. Normal people store them in cupboards or the refrigerator - he loves to freeze them. So I'm making pasta tonight and I'm so impatient I can't sit around and wait for this sauce to defrost. Genius that I am, I take a knife and start pounding into it so I can put frozen chunks of sauce over the pasta and then put it in the microwave. Of course, because I'm such a spaz I miss the jar of sauce by 3 miles and plunge the knife straight into my hand. Normal people would wince or cry in pain and try to fix the damage immediately - I stood there, for almost five minutes, looking at my bloody hand with my mouth open and marveling at the gargantuan stupidity that overtakes me at times. I mean, seriously, how stupid can you get? I am so stupid.

The cut is pretty deep, but not too wide. Honestly, there's no way I'm gonna go into the hospital, to wait in the emergency room for 2 weeks and then NOT be seen by a Hugh Laurie look alike. That would be the logical thing to do. Instead I'm sitting on the floor, eating my pasta, my hand way up in the air, watching Futurama reruns.
