Hello, internets, I am a moron

resonantI now have three stitches in the knuckle of my right ring finger. Yeah, I think I'll put the blade assembly of the food processor in the dish drainer and pile some other dishes on top of it so it can ambush me when I'm putting the clean dishes away, yay.
(I actually have another stupidity-related injury on that very same finger, but that one's only a small burn, requiring no medical attention.)
I had already given blood once today on purpose, and was not pleased to have to do it again by accident.
The spouse was late getting home, and I didn't want to drive, because, 1, can't grip steering wheel, and, 2, shocked and not thinking very clearly. "Call 911," kidlet says. "I don't think it's that much of an emergency," I say. Kidlet says, "Is there a 922?"
At least I don't have to cook Thanksgiving dinner -- though I do have to make a pie and some rolls, which probably won't be as much fun as it would otherwise be.
It's not very painful, and obviously it's not interfering with my typing all that much, though it slows me down. The worst thing is that I have difficulty holding anything; bending + squeezing = pain + an unnerving seeping sensation.
Also, that finger is heavily wrapped in white gauze, which makes it look like I'm making a rude gesture at the universe. Which is ... not untrue.
