the state of me

[norwich36]

I'm very behind on responding to comments and people's reviews of Wrath, and I was hoping to catch up tonight, but I managed to burn my hand while cooking dinner in a way that makes typing extremely painful. So I expect I won't be responding much to anything for a couple of days--especially since it turns out I am glacially slow at one-handed typing. Sorry!

Oh, gosh, you poor Baby! Have your hand in ice water - did you know that? The kinetic energy imparted to the molecules in the muscle keeps burning the tissue from within, unless you bleed off the heat.

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the advice. That's good to know.

Oh no! I'm so sorry -- I hope you're not badly hurt? (Burned your hand in the sense of 'OUCH' or burned your hand in the sense of 'had to go to a hospital'?)

Feel better, you marvelous person you. *hugs*

2d degree across all the knuckles of my left hand. It's better after icing them for a few hours, but hurts to bend. (So not hospital serious, just more serious than most of my kitchen accidents. I managed to brush the heating coil in the oven--I'm glad it wasn't worse, I guess.)

At least it wasn't my dominant hand, but typing one-handed is RLY slow for me.

Thanks for the hugs!

Thanks, sweetie!

Ouch! Poor you.

*hugs*

Thanks so much, hon! Loved the drabbles, btw, and will comment more when I can type a little faster.

Oh no! :( *healing hugs*

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

Thanks, sweetie!

YIKES! *passes you butter for burns* That's terrible! *hugs*

Well, ice has helped a lot, but bending them hurts. And one-handed typing reminds me of being 12 and 1st learning the keyboard--every key takes 5 seconds to locate. Very inefficient, and annoying because I finally had time and wanted to talk about Wrath.

Too bad you can't comment by voicepost!

Well, maybe it'll be better in the a.m. Thanks for the hugs.

[bop-radar.livejournal.com]

Ohh, yes, very annoying! So much to say about Wrath!

I haven't had a lot of time either as I have a HORRENDOUS work situation, but I'm clawing back LJ time, desperately.

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

I'm much better today--it doesn't even hurt to type, though the scar looks really horrendous. (Hopefully it will fade)

I hope your work situation gets better soon.

[bop-radar.livejournal.com]

Oh, maybe you should try and get some cream from a chemist. My mum burnt her hand badly and got a bad scar but apparently there is some stuff that really helps them fade if you start early.

Work bad.

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

Yes, that sounds like a good idea, especially since the skin there is starting to be painful. (I think maybe I overused the hand a little yesterday in my joy at being able to type again).

I'm posting a comment just to make you suffer by having to reply.


ALSO BECAUSE I CARE. ♥

You are evil, and must be destroyed. [Sorry, I was just rewatching the end of Steel Magnolias last night, and that has always been my favorite line.]

I would say more about your evilosity, but it doesn't hurt to type today, so since your wicked plan has been foiled, I will simply gloat silently. :D

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ you

:( *hugs*
Hope your hand will heal soon.

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

Thanks! It's actually feeling much better today.

[latxcvi.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

Feel better soon, boo.

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

*Hugs back*

Thanks. It's much better today.

[serenography.livejournal.com]

This is why I avoid cooking at all costs - it's VERY dangerous. *nods*

I hope you're healing well, Nora (and can dial for carry-out).

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

It is, definitely! (Though I was just heating a frozen pizza--you would think at my advanced age I would have figured out the high tech world of hot pads!)

I actually feel much better today, though I have an impressive scar.

[corbeaun.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

Just wanted to wish you well, and that the healing doesn't hurt too much. And no need to reply to this comment. *hugs again*

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

Thanks! *Hugs back* The pain is mostly gone today, so no worries.

[ender24]

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

Thanks, honey! It feels a lot better now.
