it is too easy, when alive, to make perfectly horrible mistakes

A week or so ago, I clued you all into my knack for self-injury.

I’ve cut, burned, bumped and bruised myself so many times over the past couple weeks, I’m beginning to look Hedda Husbaum. Anyway, a couple days ago I was cooking (again. It must seem like I’m always eating) and managed to splash hot oil directly into my eye. I saw it coming at me, but I was powerless against to do anything against a simple drop of olive oil.

My eye hurt for the next couple days, which it really should have considering it was fried right there in it’s socket. I was making jokes that I’d need to start wearing goggles and padding the next time I cooked. Well, tonight was another stir fry, and I did indeed break out the goggles. Don’t believe me, see for yourself.

A copy of the Bad Samaritan Burn, Baby Burn mix to anyone who can guess where this post's title comes from - without cheating.

See, the trick is, cook with your eyes closed the whole time. Sure, there might be a bit of a mess after, but at least there'll be none of that pesky oil gettin' into the old eyeballs.

About the title, I know where it's from, but I'll happily admit I cheated.

Actually, I think I look like a bug. But if you say I'm cute, I'll take your word Echo.

Damn, that's hot. You'd better wear those next time I come out.

BTW, I have no idea where the title came from (w/o cheating) but can I have a copy of the CD anyway? I have some other goodies for you... :) :) ;)
