boiling water is not a good exfoliant

Nov 16, 2010 00:18

So, as i'm want to do, i hurt myself by burning the crap out of my hand when i accidentally poured boiling water on it while draining my pasta.  I did learn something neat from this experience though: ice cream helps burns.

So, of course, after i poured the water on it, i refuse to drop the pot and instead lightly put it in the sink before doubling over in pain and then shoving my hand under ice cold  water so my hand stops cooking.  However, burned hand doesn't just throb, it like REALLY hurts.  It's sharp and i can't move my hand without it hurting and it's really distracting.  So, in desperation, after thinking about a the 2nd black dagger brotherhood book, i said, "what the hell" and decide to try the ice cream thing because it's cold anyway.  Well, gee whiz, it actually works.  Like very soothing.  Messy though.

p.s. curse you public transportation.  You thwarted my attempts to get where I'm supposed to be 4 times.  Seriously.  As i approached the stop in the morning, i watched the bus drive by.  Then the 2nd bus was late and i accidentally paid extra.  Then as i walked to the stop at the end of the day, i watched the bus pass by.  I was so pissed that i decided to walk off my anger to the next stop which isn't actually that close (like 20 minute walk).  As i'm about a block away from the bus stop, the bus i would have been on had i waited passed by.  I was like, oh well, i'm almost to the 2nd bus stop anyway.  Then i'm about 10 feet away from the 2nd bus stop and the bus i need to get on FREAKIN DRIVES BY!  At this point, i'm yelling, "FUCK YOU, PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION!!"  And thus, I curse you, public transport.
