My House is trying to Kill me

Aug 12, 2006 19:38

So much for me getting anything accomplished on my sewing this weekend. This morniing one of the two medicine cabinets in my bathroom fell on my head, bending my glasses into oblivion and almost taking out my eye. I now have a huge cut down my face and right under my eye, to go with the pounding headache and the pain in my neck that came from the ( Read more... )

Oh, my hope you are doing better now since 2 days have passed than when you wrote this. I have had things give way when working on them (shelving) but not as serious as what you describe? What did you do insult the medicine cabinet by say it mother was a pocket compact? ;)

Okay, bad j/k or attempt of humor.

Although you think if you house really wanted to kill you that it would be more civilized about it and just contact some "sicilian" handy men about doing a job. ;)

As for continuing to working on clothes .. you have more drive than myself. After what you described I probably would have taken the rest of the day off and not returned to any project until the next day.

Oh, on complete side note; what is a Bliaut?

I'm doing ok, I am still kind of in a fog sort of out of it but I have to get back to normal life. I have orientation on Wed so I have to get back to normal one way or another. I think it was more insulted because it knew it's days were numbered. I had intended to put it back up following the repainting of my bathroom (which is now a lovely shade of red and looks like I slaughtered a pig in there). But following its attempt at murdering me, it is now enjoying the happy hospitality of the county dump ( ... )

I really, really didn't need actually see the horridness. ;) But since I have are they supposed to look like wrinkled 3 day old worn linen? Or was that the particular person / dressmaker's choice on that site?

It sort of looks like a tie dye job gone horribly wrong; one solid color instead of multiple but just as wrinkled. ;)

Enough on clothing that makes me think sticking with straw and mud is a good idea. Sorry to hear you are sort of foggy after the medicine cabinet decided to display its orneriness and displeasure at a “slaughtered pig” being used to decorate the bathroom (really who knew that medicine cabinets were so opinionated about color schemes). Then again after what you describe I can definitely see you still being out of it 2 days afterwards from a hit like that.

Oh, and you are luck that “most” men don’t take lotions in lieu of actual payment when hired to perform a hit. Unless of course the medicine cabinet tried to hire the “San Francisco” mob … then you would be out of luck because they do, I hear. ;)

Ah but the only true way to appreciate the pain is to view it. Every image I've seen they all look wrinkly. I hate them. I am going to figure out something more appropriate for myself, oh yes I am.

I'm thinking that mud and straw might be the way out after all. It has certainly been a day to make me think that bed sounds more appealing then work. It's going to suck going to orientation with a beat-up face and a black eye. *I can hear the comments now*

I know a few men locally that might take the lotion end of the bargain too...;)
