SAWDUST:The devil incarnate
I'm writing this entry to explain to the world the evils of SAWDUST. Yes, SAWDUST. This horrible, God Aweful thing is worse than sand at a beach...it doesn't only get into your sandwhich, blow in your hair, and get stuck in your bathingsuit..... No no no, it gets IN you. It goes inside your ear paths, frosts your hair...like a lovely sprinkle of...wood. It sticks to your skin even after a shower and itches and makes you smell like a Christmas tree-for days!! It gets in your eyes and STICKS to your eyeballs; and if you try to rub it out, it just rubs riiiggghttt on into those pretty little eyeballs making you look like a crackhead, or a pothead, or both!
It's the sawdust that will kill you if you breath it in...so fine, and soft, and gentle to the touch, but EVIL and dangerous to the uneducated eye! It's the sawdust that flies through the air several feet from the area I work, just to make the cleanup job hell! Like a little carpet it covers the floor, the tables, and the stools...Vacuums and brooms and dustpans and rags....and then there's the mask! Oh to get started on the mask! I highly doubt that the silly little white SARS mask is keeping out the little devil sawdust particles...I can still smell them, and taste them, and lick them off my lips! And the goggles, why of course, they get steamed up because of the damn mask! But to think that they would keep the sawdust out of your eyes! Ha! One could only wish... But then it gets in your pockets, the fron the back, the hood, and the hoodie hand pockets...it gets in the little holes that are invisible to the eyes and it pokes you and scratches you, and doesn't come out! It gets under your shirt and down your pants, until all you want to do is scratch your legs and arms and scalp and eyes....but no! You realize you have 6 more hours to work on a damn wooden sculpture...damn the sawdust to hell. The flipping devil-sawdust.
