I am a total klutz. You'd think that as a knitter and a chemist, you know, someone who works with her hands, that I would have very agile little fingers. Think again.
This is why I'm not allowed to use the super glue any more:
Yes. I glued my thumb to the glue. And seconds after that, I glued the Q-tip soaked in acetone I was using to try and pry it off to my fingers on my other hand.
This weekend has been...crazyish. Em and three of her friends were planning on attending the Anime Banzai in the Davis Conference Center this weekend, and I'm super nice so I offered to let them stay at my house instead of having to get a hotel room for three nights. We pulled out all of our extra pillows and blankets and sleeping bags and let them crash on the living room floor.
Scott and I generally go to bed rather early, but we needed to stay up late enough to let the girls in each night...LATE. Also, between their regular stuff and their costumes (like 3 different costumes each) my living room and bathroom were CHAOS. There was makeup everywhere. HURGH. I got home and hurried to clean up as much of it as I could before Scott saw it and had a conniption. Ha!
They're over at the convention right now, and later today they will gather all their things and head back down home and then my house will be SILENT again. So nice.
They were gone during the day though, so on the plus side, we got all the ugly linoleum in the kitchen ripped up, and we were happy to find that there wasn't any more water damage under the dishwasher, so we don't have to replace any more subfloor. Happy!

I am so sorry for the glue misfortune but THANK YOU for the laugh! I needed that today! Also, the kitchen looks amazing! Good job you two!
gaaah. that picture is the reason why i'm not allowed to use super glue. i have so been there.
and as for houseguests: i had a houseful of twenty-one-year-olds for three days in march, when i lived in a 400-square-foot apartment. that was AWFUL. the day they left was one of the happiest days of my life. enjoy the quiet and peace!
