It BIT me!!!

Of all the cheek -- I am BLEEDING more than I have bled from any injury in I-don't-know-how-long because of a freaking shaving utensil. This offends me ( Read more... )

I hope you smashed that offensive little bastard to death! How dare it bite you!

Tempting, but...one gets out of the habit of smashing things which bite when one is employed to clean their cages and keep them healthy. (One more thing to write up in the "you know you're a zookeeper when..." list -- which really does exist -- along with "You don't even think about putting your lunch in the fridge beside the stool specimens, you just do it," and "Because no contractor can ever manage to pour a decent concrete floor with drains at the lowest point, you have the power to make water flow uphill.") Thus, a small piece of cheap plastic reaps the benefits earned by hawks, alligators, and the occasional opossum. I will be MUCH more careful next time I approach it with intent!

aparently that razor didn't like you..hmm, kill it..kill it now. @~~{~

Hee hee -- check the response to comment above yours, which pretty much sums up reason why said bloodthirsty razor is still alive and intact and sitting on the side of the tub. ;)

hmm, good point.

ps..satyr repair kit very helpful. @~~{~

Well, either it did you in (fat chance, eh?) or you've done your own bandaging - my first response was to grab the Satyr Repair Kit(tm) and ask, "Where?".

Just from the name, that sounds like a marvelous repair kit!! (And it would probably have excellent stories to tell, too...can one buy a first aid kit a drink?)

::sigh:: It was just under my left knee. Neither dignified nor interesting, though I would have loved being patched up and cared-for all the same. (Still have a freaking band-aid on it, days later! Haven't bloodied a knee this badly since I outgrew my BigWheel. ...Is that just an '80s kid thing? Those plastic contraptions were awful on our knees!)
