You know what sucks? Reaching down between the seats in your car and pulling your hand out and finding it covered in blood. And then realize, oh my god, my finger really hurts and, seriously, it’s covered in blood.
It took 5 paper towels, and two butterfly stitches to finally make it stop. I still have no idea what cut me. Apparently I hide really sharp knives in my car.
This morning, I reached my hand into my laptop bag and an embroidery needle poked itself right in my wound. Cause only smart people carry around loose embroidery needles.
Apparently it’s going to be one of those days.

Watch out, Jen. Shit like that comes in threes. You have one more…

I hope you’re not posting from work, and as far as the “Threes” theory goes, I’m pretty sure that it’s total bull — stuff like that totally comes in fourteens, so you better be watching out for the rest of your fingers and probably your whole left foot.

(your left foot is the one with only four toes, right?)
Oh man…please watch yourself!

I, of course, keep my embroidery needles in my pockets. That way there’s a 50-50 chance that when someone bumps into me they’ll get a puncture wound in the thigh, unfortunately that theory puts the puncture wound in my thigh the other half of the time. So what the hell are you doing with an embroidery needle in your laptop bag?
Word of advice – stay away from anvils or anything made by “ACME CO.” today.
Or you could have gone to the dentist and have them slice open your upper lip…which is soooo comfortable especially with a nice salty lunch at the office..
i assume it’s the needle that will be attacked to the string that is going through anthony’s body and eventually is attached to my screw, yes?
ha! i wrote attacked instead of attached. maybe that was not a mistake?
Oh god. AMAZING.
Hope you’re ok, J!
