One of those weeks

Work and crafts have been keeping me busy. I've been cutting lots of glass and my fingers have the cuts to show it. They aren't deep, but for some reason no matter how hard I try I get small cuts everywhere. On Thursday I cut a little deeper on my middle finger so on went the band-aid. Then on Friday I was opening my mail and got a deep paper cut on my index finger, so on went another band-aid. Now...today I had a torch worked glass Christmas ornaments class (which was fun). Normally I'm really careful and I've NEVER done this before, but I had a "duh" moment and I touched a way too hot piece of glass and heard a sizzle, smelt a horrible smell and felt some wretched bad pain on my index finger and thumb. I totally scorched my fingers. Luckily, it is a bad enough burn that it doesn't hurt as bad now...essentially I just branded my fingers and it feels like I have a sensitive callous on them. The main thing it hurt was my pride. I don't know as though anyone noticed in the class, but you could smell it...ewwww...I forgot how bad that can smell...On the good side you can see the imprint of the icicle I was making...lol...kind of a zig zag pattern.

Oh...and sorry for the slow posts. They blocked blogger at work (so dumb) so I can't type during boring conference calls anymore :( I have to type when I get home and recently I've been working later or I have stuff going on so I keep slacking off...I'll get better :)
