But thumbs are what sets us apart from the animals!
So I guess you don't really realize just how much you depend on your thumbs until you accidentally smash the shit out of both of them and are unable to use them to their full extent.
Ouch.
Basically, this morning I noticed that the bookshelf I had JUST FIXED, SERIOUSLY, had a shelf that had gone askew. I carefully removed the books from the shelf, and as I attempted to remove the shelf and realign it, the shelf above came crashing down onto the end portions of both my thumbs.
Again, ouch.
Nothing appears to be broken (they both move, so at least the joints are ok), and I can actually use the thumbs, but too much pressure causes quite a bit of pain. And they're starting to swell a bit. :( And I'm pretty sure that they are both starting to bruise. I'm just crossing my fingers that I don't lose the nails. Because that would be fucking gross.
So anyhow, I'm sitting on my couch all weepy because even though it happened hours ago I'm reading depressing fanfic which really isn't helping matters. Oh well. Back to ANTM! 3 bitches remain!
