I didn't M.
You said something about "before the painkillers kicked in..." Those are the drugs I meant

You're actually close (to the truth), Jomei ...
but, not quite.
In fact, I wasn't actually injured by the blender, but in the aftermath.

Why do you assume it's "drug related", FoF?
Cause, it actually isn't ... at least,
not on my part.

It's cool, Ben ... I'll survive.
And on the plus side, my injury lightens my schedule up a bit (schoolwork-wise).

Don't be a nut...you don't have to worry about
clicks if you are recuperating. Besides if you are all druggedup, who knows what you will say.... I have seen what you say _normally_...
Feel better!

That's a good question, Jazwolf ...
I believe it's currently "resting comfortably".

nobody's asked: Could the blender be saved?

No, it certainly is not, Uncle Dave ...
however,
on the plus side, the circumstances leading up to it should make for a pretty interesting post.

I really appreciate you saying that, Nanaroo.
People needn't go overboard with their concern, however.
Although, they can if they want to.

Curiously, Blanche ...
it was my second quasi-significant "medical issue" in
three days, after not having
any in the past three
years.

A couple quick asides:
1. I will elaborate on what happened (exactly) in my next post. I'm sorry I had to be so vague last night, however, it probably would have been impossible to do the story it's full justice (in my shaken condition), anyway.
2. I will attempt to reciprocate clicks and leave comments now ... but be warned, the process will likely be very slow today (for obvious reasons ... at least, to me).

Actually, FoF, I may be under-exaggerating the extent of the injury ...
or then again, perhaps not.

I'm sure the card was really cute, fourcats ...
(besides, it's the thought that counts) ... fortunately though, what actually happened is (not quite) so gruesome. However, it
was equally
dramatic ... not to mention,
traumatic.

If not, at least you will have some gruesome posts to store up for our future horror.

M.P.O. - i just drew a get well card for you but i
couldn't post it 'cause it was too big. it was a picture of a girl holding a busted blender vase, blood dripping from a severed arm. text - "oops! hope you feel better soon."
enjoy those painkillers! (to a point!)

I don't quite know how to answer that, Devil's Advocate ...
However, I suspect you may have gotten the wrong idea.
Thanks for stopping by, anyway, though.

I sympathise with you but why a blender and not a vacuum cleaner?
I regularly find myself in the emergency room too. I am mildly addicted to my vacuum cleaner. I guess I fall for suckers. Yes, boys do it better than girls, but machines take the cream everytime. Never thought of using a blender, how did it feel? I am guessing it was you rather than the blender that exploded. Anyway, I must go off to my meeting now, Suckaholics Anonymous.
