Who needs a pinky nail anyway...

Soo...today I lost my pinky nail. I guess "lost" isnt the right word...more like GOT RIPPED OFF!!! I was moving some towels that were on top of the washer over to the top of the dryer-to put a load in- and my pinky nail caught on something and RIPPED OFF!!! At first I thought it was just my fake nail that came off...but after a closer look, the WHOLE NAIL was ripped up! It was only hanging on by 1/2 my cuticle. So I (painfully) cut as much off as I could so I could get it bandaged up. Theres still a lil nubbin of nail left (the part that is still "attached" to the cuticle). Oh and dont worry, I'll post pictures as soon as its time for a bandage change (I didnt think to take one right before I put one on)! So now I'm trying to avoid any and everything from hitting my pinky. Even putting neosporin (sp?) on hurt!! ....It hurts like HELL!...

...just thought I would share...

in the old days they used to rip out peoples finger nails and toe nails to torture them.
it was the most extreme amount of pain they could inflict on a person because a bagillion nerves all live in the finger tips.

its true, I am not making this up.
sorry you know what that feels like.
eh... yeah I am real sorry.
