The good news is the man bought me the beeeeeeeeeeeutiful flowers for Valentines Day. Aren't you jealous?
Now for the bad news. I almost chopped my finger off tonight cutting through a tomato for my daughter. I have these things call Hemiplagic Migraines. Basically it means that I get paralasis on the right side of my body when the migraine comes on. This happened to occur right as as I was making an incision in the mater...I just walked in the door from the ER....and well...don't look if you're squeemish...I'll show you the "after" first.
Seven damn stitches for a fucking mater.
Don't look below if you don't like the site of blood, or my finger guts.
Needless to say I'll be taking a couple days off designing...Ro and Peg you have emails comeing from me tomorrow, giving you the juicy details.
I'm not leaving my bed for at least three days.
Thanks again to all of you who are sending me good thoughts...but could we maybe try some kind of tribal dance instead? The thought don't seem to be working. Mmmmk, thanks.
UPDATE (11:36 PM)
My sutures fell out and I had to spend another fourty gabillion hours at the ER...this time they can't resuture it and I just get to bleed. Seriously people, I've been bleeding profusely for like 9 hours...At least Kaiser was nice enough to give me this nice handy dandy splint that I can't design with. I love them for that one.
I look like I have a smurf penis for a finger.

Holy hell! That looks very painful!
A couple years ago, I cut my pinky finger wide open with a Pampered Chef slicer-dicer thing, and I had several stitches-- but it looked nothing like yours!
get better soon!

Stolen car, broken foot, and now you try and cut off your own finger?!
Let the tribal dances begin!

I agree with Ro. You're f'd up woman! That's dedication with a capital D! I can't believe your first thought was "shit this'd be a great blog photo"
Bwahahahaha!
Tribal dance has begun, in your honour!
Here's an cyber drink for you! *clink* We'll put yours in a plastic cup though, m'kay?

Good Lord! Girl I cannot believe the sh!t you have been through. Tribal dancing with my leopard speedos until things get better.

Ugh. That looks so painful. I suppose that means you can't feel the seizures coming on? How scary. And just how sharp was that knife cutting the tomato anyhow?

Nothing like a little finger food, eh?
If you have a smurf penis for a finger.....what does the poor smurf have for a penis?
Going to dash your Hugh crush....go watch him in Stuart Little :)
Hope your finger is feeling better by now!!!
