The Hostess With The Grossness



Best Friend hurt herself real purty-like. She was hosting a party on Saturday night and was preparing food for her guests when she met her match in the form of a cucumber and sharp knife. Cuke and knife = 1 Best Friend = 0.
My poor sweet friend had to leave her guests and rush to the hospital with her hubby where stitches were needed to close the wound on her ring finger. The sad part? When she finally returned home, the party was over and everyone had gone home. It is wrong of me to take such pleasure in such gross things, but I truly do. I love the deep red site of it, the utter rigidity of the scab formation and the promise of a scar to memorialize the event.
Feel better soon, my friend!

If you are anything like me and love the site of this kind of thing, then click on the plus sign to see the "nekkid" pictures of Best Friend's finger. Honestly, it made K2's stomach do a little ugly flip, so only look if you know you can handle it.
I'm not kidding. Enter only if you are not easily offended.

  7. I will not be able to look at the additional pictures. I cut my finger pretty bad before and I just wrapped it up and wouldn't look at it for about three days.

    My friends were threatening to take the bandage off for me. It worked out okay, but I do have a scar.

  8. Ha!
    I'm queasy but I just had to click on the plus sign.

    DH drank too much beer during a football game and was plating/whittling with an exacto knife
    off went the finger tip
    I dropped to the floor
    blood everywhere
    he wrapped it, took care of me
    watched the rest of his game and then went to the ER.

  13. NICE! Now that it's cleaned up a bit I can see just how close I came to losing the tip! Yikes. Thanks for sharing my trauma with the blog world K1. If I can help just one knife-wielding, cuke-slicing person with my story then it was worth it. Now if I could just stop picking at these stitches... ;)

  14. Bummer for the party. I can sure relate to a bandaged up hand though ;0)

    Hope she's got that flesh wound all filled out again soon!
