was looking to see if i had posted about how i managed to injure myself while prepping dinner a few years ago then, because last night i did it again, in almost exactly the same way.

well it turns out that i don't think i posted about it, but this wish-it-was-a-ligature finger wag that i made up for some other thing was in the search results for "finger"

⃔ ☝🏼⃕



very funny having the same injury that will take a month to heal a second time because I get to skip all the treatments that don’t work, and skip learning to not bump into it constantly, I just stop using that finger for anything.

Bespoke ace wrap over cloth >>>> any sticky band-aid for my skin type, band-aids just fall off and varieties only improve when not if.

and it's funny to look backwards on cause-effect that I just disregard in realtime by applying the fundamental attribution error to myself

I sprained my right wrist and started doing a no-numbers body weight cut around the same time two weeks ago so I've been more clumsy (lack of calories) and handling things funny and bumping into things when I carry stuff w/ my dominant hand that has a sprained wrist so, no surprised that I eventually made a mistake with a kitchen tool with it.

one of our fiddle leaf's started dropping leaves as they do a month ago and eventually dropped 90% of it's leaves with the exception of three healthy branches. it looks terrible after like four years of amazing fitness in the same place.

it took me another month to remember that I on a whim used some "indoor house plant fertilizer" prior that I found under the sink on all the house plants prior to this happening.

Oops.
