So my cat bit me tonight. (it's ok, now - he seems very sorry, he's sitting in my arms purring and making it very hard to type this) It wasn't his fault, the bite, I needed to grab him quickly in the dark and hurt him accidentally. Anyway. He bit me and sank one of his fangs into the joint between two fingers, and it hurt like a MOTHERFUCKER. I washed it with soap, but I know cat bites are pretty nasty, do I need to, like...do anything else about it? Apart from take some paracetamol and hope for the best, I mean.
I can't believe I'm asking the internet this. (I already googled it). But, in the immortal words of Leeloo - play-is... halp. Plays halp, internet! I don't want my fingers to fall off, but I also don't want to expend too much effort.
Sigh. I think that's the story of my life right now.
I'm debating whether I should stay up to watch Obama's inaugaration speech live or not. I have tomorrow off (which will be handy if I need to be rushed to the doctor for life-saving kitty-bite treatment), but I can't think of anything exciting to do for four hours. More exciting than reading old Gossip Girl threads on TWOP, that is. (No one likes Chuck! Are they all insane? He's gorgeous and evil! Kids these days...)
My finger hurts :( :(
