    Default Oh God! It's stuck in my foot!

    I just pulled an inch long splinter out of my foot. Yeaaowwwch! I probably should've waited for my dad to take out, cause now I'm missing some skin down there and it hurts to walk. So anyone else have something stuck in them lately?

    The most recent splinter I had was a couple of years ago. This fibre type thing, about the width of a hair (but a bit thicker) got stuck in the top of one of my thumbs. And no matter what I tried, I couldn't get it out, so I had it stuck in there for two or three months. Eventually it just slipped out while I was rubbing it in the shower. (continuing the last sentence out-of-context dirtfest)

    What else would you be rubbing, e-pal Paul?

    I haven't had a splinter in a while. The last one I remember getting was YEARS ago when I was playing in the park as a kid. And it was on my butt, because I was wearing sweatpants or something. Ouch!

    I was reenacting the Lion King in the hallway when I stepped on a needle with my hands. I quickly picked it up and my hand filled with dark blood. Blood came gushing out so I used both hands so they'd take longer to fill. Then when my hands were all full I ran into the livingroom and said to my mom "Look! blood!"

    Another time I got a splinter in my finger from a police boat. it stayed there until it was green. Then a red haired friend of mine sat on my hand and it hurt like hell and I screamed and he ran and hid under the table.

    and in case my age wasn't obvious in the above two incidents, they both happened a couple of months ago.

    I had an 8 inch long piece of rusty hog wire stuck two inches in my foot when I was 9.

    The next morning after it was cut out of my foot was excruciating. About as excruciating as when it was in before I got anaesthesia.

    Oh man, if I find a splinter I rip it out of my foot. It's better to have a healing foot without splinter than a splinter trapped in there.

    Incidentally, there is a piece of pencil lead in my hand

    For some reason glass likes my feet, and it always manages to find it's way into my foot. And a couple months ago I woke up with a toothpick halfway into my side, it hurt like hell.

    It's a good thing that pencil lead doesn't contain any actual lead...

    I've had my share of splinters over the years, but nothing compares to the steel splinter I got in my thumb while working for some refrigeration engineers. It was a damn long shard of sharpened steel, covered in graphite grease. I pulled it out, but the tip broke off and was buried quite deep. I spent my lunch break trying to dig it out with a Stanley knife, to no avail. It sat there till I got home, and took about half an hour's work with warm water, a pin and some tweezers. Basically had to scrape through the layers of skin to expose it, then get a grip with the tweezers and lift it out. The lifting was the most painful part. It wasn't a terribly big splinter, but there's something peculiarly painful about having metal fragments under your skin. Especially when every side is about as sharp as a razor.

    I can't recall the last time I had anything stuck inside me.
    The messenger is standing at the gate
    Ready to let go
    Ready for the crush
    Too late for whispers
    Too late for the blush
    The past is mercy
    When the future is aglow
