h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

You'd think I'd know this by my age wouldn't you?

Just after I got up, (preeven), I prepared the bathroom ready for my shower, I *was* going to lighten my hair after Andrew's gone to school, that's after shampoo/no conditioner so I wanted a shower first. I went to get a razor to place on the side of the bath ready for de-fuzzing, and it was a new packet. I opened that OK but when I tried to slide the plastic cover off the end of the razor, it wouldn't budge!Instead of leaving it till I was more awake I went to flip the end and it sprang off, but my thumb went across both blades with enough force to take a slice of skin with it.So there's me, blood dripping into the bathroom sink thinking "Stupid woman!" There go my plans for the day.

Ow! *searches for bandaid*

needed for GB before she bleeds all over the place. The is on the way with needle and thread....

oh! brings TLC

You forgot the pheloxi, and that is just for the !

You need someone to give it a 'magic' kiss GB

Yes, I do. Any volunteers? I just rang my partner and he said I should have been more careful, but worse things happen at sea.

Silly man.

on the wound to make it better.

GB but I can't help you there, my eldest grandaughter is adamant I stay single and not even look sideways at a Lady....

But here is a if that is any help...




Stephen

Interesting to note that GB's first reaction to a cut hand is to start typing on her computer...

to GB with*backspace*

A very perceptive and witty comment,h5ringer!...

But you know what they say..."You can't keep a good woman down".....

My knee surgery is confirmed for tomorrow, I must be at the hospital for 8am...so I will have my last or two as I must "fast" from midnight...



Stephen

Well I was after sympathy of course!

I don't type with my thumb anywaybut I do hit the space bar with it

I guess my can wait until Saturday

with the surgery tomorrow Stephen

does me fine thanks, nextSaturday night

you poor dear

(unshaven and stirred)

I use the four-bladed ones that are kept behind 'bars' so there's not much chance of me cutting meself! (not least, because they don't have those irritating plastic covers over them.)

I hope your thumb heals soon, GB. Take more water with it next time! (and a plaster)

Hope the bleeding has stopped by now.

I'm on my third plaster!



I think I need stitches.

But Schreck Inc just cheered me up immensely, thanks darling sub

if it's still bleeding, go to your dr, GB. Please!

Yes, take care of it please

(oh, and btw, about us men? we find other peoples pain easier to bear than our own - you may have noticed this)

I knowthanks I'm OK honest. I just can't stand wet plasters. Plus they're see-through, so I can see all the gunk

The bleeding has stopped, it's just weeping.
