Ouch.
I am apparently a klutz. We have these tweezers... They're the especially pointy variety good for pulling out things like eyebrow hairs.... and apparently puncturing holes into the artery on your foot, which is what I happened to do this morning.
It pretty much looks worse than it really ended up being... but good grief I have never seen myself bleed like that. It got me all queasy and I'm not even normally really all that bothered by blood!
The especially annoying part, however, is I can't wear shoes. Anything that goes across the top of my foot hurts like hell. I've resorted to having to wear my Columbia sandals because they're the ONLY shoes that I own other than fancy heels that don't go across that part of my foot. Unfortunately, since I do live in New Hampshire and it is December, it means I have to wear socks so I look utterly ridiculous.
Sigh.
how in the hell-ass did you stab yourself with a pair of tweezers on the TOP of your foot? i could understand the bottom. i'd figure, "oh, okay. she stepped on them." but the *top*?? the only scenario i can imagine is that tweezer-gnomes snuck in in the middle of the night and viciously tried to murder your foot. maybe you should spray for gnomes--they say it's good to do it once every six months or so. *g*
love you babe.
