What I will do, though is tell you about a strange even that happened last week! Last Wednesday, I was putting a dish in the refrigerator and it slipped and essentially broke in my hands. Long story short, I got a horrible gash in my pinky and had to get seven stitches. But I was very brave, according to my mother, and she bought me coffee afterwards (which I suppose is the adult equivalent of a lollipop). ;)
I have to wear a finger brace because I'm not supposed to bend it til this Saturday. I can't write by hand very well. I also can't play the piano. *sigh* Well, I can... kind of, but only select songs, and still not very well. I've finally mastered buttering toast/English muffins, though! Overall, it's been much more inconvenient than painful, thankfully.
Ah, yes - c'est moi modeling my lovely metal finger for you all. It's going to be the latest fashion, let me tell you. As is wearing the old nightgowns of one's mother, as I am in this picture. :P
This debacle has screwed with my brain, though. I had just gotten out of vacation mode, and then this this whole thing came along and left me in invalid mode, which is quite similar to vacation mode.
So, I'm not entirely sure if I'm out of the funk I was in at the time of my last post... I am still lacking passion about any number of things, but I have been feeling less at a loss with my writing, which is excellent.
So... yes. This is just a little update.
Carry on, then!
Hope you feel better soon sweetling <3
ReplyDeleteThank you, darling Jhordyn. ♥
DeleteI'm certain your little finger will be in fully functioning mode very soon. And then you can play and sing more songs on the piano for us, because your version of Stranger on the Shore was lovely. And then of course I had a listen to Dangling My Legs Off the Moon. What a sweet, gentle poem, perfectly complimented by your beautiful voice. You are far too hard on yourself, dear one.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping it won't have forgotten how to bend during it's time incapacitated. :)
DeleteOh, dearest B. - your praise is so heartening. Thank you so much.
Yes, I do have a terrible habit of being hard on myself - most notably when it comes to music. But I think I am gaining a little more confidence. I hope so anyway. :)
I wish all the best for your pinky! Seven stitches is quite impressive for such a small finger! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, E! Hehe, yes - it really outdid itself. :)
DeleteI hope your pinky feels better soon!
ReplyDeleteLike B, I'm also looking forward to more songs and enjoy your singing and writing very much. You are an inspiration to many :)
Oh, and congrats on the 100th post! That must feel good.
Many thanks from me and my pinky. :)
DeleteOh, Jade! You are so kind, and ever an encouragement. Thank you! ♥
I am excited for I found out today that my brother's computer has a sound recorder! So, I shall most likely be able to persuade him to let me use it since mine is broken.
Thanks - it does feel pretty swell. :D
YOU WON!
ReplyDeleteSo chuffed and still in shock! I wish you could have seen my face when I read your comment... :)
DeleteAh, I'm so glad you're happy about it. To be honest, I was a little shocked too, to find that the winner was also a dear friend of mine. A small world, indeed! I have sent you an email.
DeleteHow could I not be? :) I am glad to be part of this happy coincidence! Actually, I believe this was only the second giveaway I've entered... Very incredible!
DeleteOh my god, where did I go? I'm so sorry for this late comment. I've been reading blogs silently (or maybe not). But I thought I already commented on this one. (Too much excuses, get lost haze!)
ReplyDeleteHehe. An adult version of a lollipop. I guess it's true. How's your pinky darling?
Hehe, don't get lost, haze - I'd miss you! The brain is a tricky thing; I understand. :)
DeleteWell, we decided to take the stitches out two days later than we originally thought we would, and still it's extremely fragile. And an unfortunate accident today made it bleed. Not too much, but it was still unnerving. I'm going to have one humdinger of a scar... But I can live with that!
Ohhh no! Poor Melee :(! Wowzas you're a babe AND you're extremely talented with your words! I'm so envious of your hair (but not so much of that umm rather fetching metal clip :( booo)
ReplyDeleteHope you get well soon my friend! <3 xxx
Hahaha, oh darling Tilly - thank you! You've made my smile so wide. And what?! You don't want a groovy metal finger like mine? Weird. ;)
DeleteThank you! ♥
Wooah, battle scar! Will you have a scar from this or is it going to heal well? Because you should start crafting your story now. Maybe an alligator tried to take you down, but you wrestled it back into the swamp ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome that you're written 100 posts! Congrats!
I'm 99% sure I'm going to have a doozy of a scar! Haha, seriously! I need to get cracking on that. I've already had at least one person tell me I need to come up with a better story. Your alligator one is great! Though less probable for me as I don't dwell in FL. ;)
DeleteThanks, Kim! :)
