Miracle of miracles. Woke up this morning and I had no flu symptoms. Seems as though I got the light end of the spectrum at work. Well to make up for feeling good today karma came around and whacked me twice.
I've been cooking for a long long time now, over half my life now come to think of it. Over the years I've had my fair share of cuts and burns. It is one of those things that you endure and learn to shrug off. 'Oops, I've just spilled hot grease all over my arm. Oh well, that will hurt later' and 'Say that stupid dull knife just slipped off the onion and cut right into my finger, better get the duct tape.' Well I haven't had a good noteworthy encounter with hot objects or knives in years. I don't count the daily grease spatters or knife tip poke that leaves no more than a parer cut. Today, as I said, the universe say fit to grace me with not one, but two lovely knife wounds while doing nearly the same task. Nearly identical cuts, too. the first one I sliced a bit off my fingernail on my right index finger and a bit into the flesh underneath. The second cut did the same but on the thumb of the same hand, just a bit deeper into the nail and skin.
Two in one day.
Wow

I once was shaving my legs & when I came up my leg with the razor it caught between my thumb nail & the skin under it. Yuck. Shaved my nail clean off. Bleck!
As for the cat movie... I like that people actually get offended by it. It is like "C'mon people, stop taking life so damn seriously! Yelling at cats is really good times! Get off your asses & yell at some motha fuckin' cats already!!!"
We have a saying in my circle: If it can't be fixed with duct tape, it can't be fixed.
