No, I am not trying to kill myself... That was the thought that passed through my mind today when I accidentally sliced my left wrist with an Exacto knife.
Now, typically, I injure myself at work at least once a week, usually just a little stab or cut on my hands with my knife. However, earlier today as I was trying to put my big ruler back under my table and out of my way, I had the ruler and my Exacto in my right hand and was trying to guide the heavy ruler through my left when I just pushed the wrong way and my Exacto scratched a nice slice right over the veins in my wrist. One look at it and I thought, "People are going to think I am trying to kill myself!" Then the blood flowed and the pain set in... And my head suddenly went, "SHIT! Attempting suicide by slitting your wrists FUCKING HURTS!" DX
XD I am such a damn klutz!
So now I am sporting a VERY stylish gauze pad over my left wrist, wrapped with black electrical tape with my neon orange RB Foundation bracelet over that... I LOOK SO COOL! The black electrical tape is about two inches thick, so it greatly resembles a big fat bracelet or something. Electrical tape is the best bandage EVER! It holds REALLY well, yet it stretches, it's flexible and it's waterproof! XD
