Plastic cuts = worse than papercuts

Apparently, the makers of those little grocery store tubs of fresh fruit (in this case mixed berries) have it out for us. In attempting to get the friggin' container open, the very thin plastic lid sliced my index finger open not once, but twice. Nothing gory or anything, but one of those nagging little grazes, like the kind you get from a piece of paper. You know the ones, where you'd swear it should be gushing blood because it's so painful.

Naturally, today was the day that I was planning on finishing up a couple of contest entries and actually finish some writing early for once. Unfortunately, when I write, I need my fingers to keep up with my thoughts or I lose myself in my writing when my head's going faster than my hands. And a big bandage on my finger isn't exactly helping me keep my WPM up.

Oh well, at least I'm getting caught up on my WDC e-mails and whatnot. Granted, it's only at about 40-50 WPM, but I guess it'll have to do.
