Holy...!
Fothermucker!
Fffffff!!!
Three things you would probably yelp out if you got burned by the side of the oven. Not because someone pushed you, not because there was an earthquake, but because you simply forgot to wear your mits!!! Welp, that's what happened to me a good three days ago. It was gym
time so I had to take my Baked Herb Chicken out of the oven and get going already. Like any other burn, it was over before the hurt registered. I just saw that a strand of my skin was "baked" so I ran it with water for a couple of minutes, applied some Vaseline then placed a band aid over it. I forgot about it because I was excited to "tread the mill."
The morning next, HOLY CRAP, I totally forgot to take the band ai
d off! When I did, lo and behold, there it was. My leech-like burn, reminding me of my kitchen wreck. I measured it actually. It was 2.5 inches long and 2 cm wide. The last time I got burned was 5th grade when I adjusted the ironing board down to my height with the iron right in front of me. Yep. Dove straight to my then flawless thigh. But nowmy arm. MY ARM. Thank God for winter cloth
es or I would have to showcase this for everyone to see. This burn is so... long and so... thick. It was blistering already so I had Hoen buy some aloe and Solarcaine. According to the book, "blisters are your body's own bandage so don't pop it." Boy was I tempted. Don't worry, I'm not going to be stupid this time.
Here's a pic of my leech with some aloe cream. The second one gives you a better perspective in relation to the size of my arm. The third one, well, I just wanted to flaunt how well I secure my gauze WITH BAND-AID!! Hahaha!
