Is that a hand in your hat, or are you just happy to see me?

The downside to being married is that you have to do things you would never even consider doing when you were single.
For example: I have been kindly asked (read: commanded) to cover up my freshly injured finger by C when I am outside. Ok – fair enough, makes sense not to chill it too much. “Outside” means the 60 minutes I use to go to and from work every day. As if it is not enough that I have to hold my hand/finger high at all times (looking like I ask for the bill, or want to submit a question), C decided to add some fuel to the farce by selecting her wool rib hat as proper hideout to my wounded finger/hand.
It is exactly as feminine as you’d hope and – yes – it is turned inside-out for a reason. You don’t want to know.
So these days I walk around looking like the Peter & the Mr. Sockpuppet show. That’s right. I swear I saw a girl in the bus just waiting for me to break out in complete lunacy and start dialogue with my masked “tell-truth-friend”.
What s even worse is the one time yesterday I had to go and buy stuff for the first time since my stupidity accident. The salesclerk’s focus immediately changed from my face to my concealed left hand. Her face went from smiling to terrified in 2 seconds. I could almost see her thinking: “Oh no not again. This it the third time this year. Why me again? Why?”.
You will never find a more regretful person who’d had his finger inside a blender than the one writing this shit.
Over and out from…

Ps.: do you know how annoying it is to blog with the one-finger-system?

As an answer to your question ..: No I don’t know how annoying it is to blog with the one-finger-system – BUT I sure can imagine. It must be a 9 on the scale form 1 to10 .. Probably as annoying as a one armed man trying to pick his nose and at the same time has an itch in a## :-)
Ha ha… Exactly!
