I managed to burn myself, again, on the oven the other day. I think the bulk of this year’s holiday donations are going to the War Amps. I’ve got a feeling I’m going to need them someday soon….
Also, thanks to my buddy Eric for drawing my attention to the fact that I need to be eating all the ice cream I can now, because when I have no hands with which to spoon feed myself the ice cream, I’ll be relegated to consuming milkshakes. That’s the kind of logic I can really commit to.
But that’s not what this entry is about. This entry is about me having to wear my watch on my left wrist, because the burn on my right wrist is right on the watch-wearing area. This shouldn’t be a challenge for me, but it is. All day I’ve feel like I’m trying to do everything left-handed. Not just when I look at my watch – but all the damn time.
I really don’t get it, since I normally wear my watch on my right wrist (which now has a bandage on it) and a bracelet on my left wrist. But nooooooo… the watch has thrown everything off. I feel lop-sided. And I am a slave to wearing a watch, so don’t even suggest I take it off for a few days. If I do that, the universe very possibly might implode.
So in the meantime, if you see some girl walking down the street, bumping into shit because she can’t walk straight, don’t worry, it’s just me. But heaven help us if I continue with this self-injury trend and end up with no hands to hold my watch on my wrists at all…
Update: Know what’s even more messed up? The fact that I still do not know my left from my right. I just burnt my *left* wrist, and today am wearing my watch on my *right* wrist. I amaze myself with my brilliance… really…
Hah – it sounds like you’re perilous, just like me! 😀
All this talk just reminds me that I have to buy a watch for school. I haven’t worn a watch regularly in a long time. It’s going to drive me insane to wear one almost every day…at least for the first little while.
(But I won’t complain about having an excuse to buy myself a new watch!)
I wear my watch on my right wrist too and everytime someone notices they seem to feel the need to point out that you’re “supposed” to wear your watch on your left wrist. What’s up with that?
I’d rather not wear a watch at all than wear one on the left. It feels terribly unnatural after all this time.
Just letting you know you’re not alone!
Tip Dyslexics for Handy:
1)make 2 fists.
2)extend pointer finger and thumb from each fist.
3)twist wrists in such a way as to have your fingers make one “L”, and one backwards “L”.
4)the hand with the “L” shaped fingers is your LEFT! Marvelous!
5)We are dyslexic of borg. you will be ass laminated
*LOL* That update is too funny, peech!
I wear my watch on my right hand too! I’m right handed as well, so it’s all messed up. 🙂
You wear your watch on your RIGHT wrist? Girl, that’s just weird shit. *lol* No WONDER you’re accident prone!
Ooh, I totally get that. Not about the watch, since I just use my phone for time-checking purposes, but about the hand-adornments in general.
I have a bracelet on my right wrist, a small slender gold band on my left ring finger, and a larger gold ring with a star sapphire on my right ring finger.
If anything happens and these adornments are moved, removed, or even just flipped upside down (in the case of the sapphire ring) I get all discombobulated and the world stops making sense.
I also get all bent out of shape if I’m not wearing a necklace. I MUST fiddle with a necklace throughout the day or I go batshit. For the last week, I’ve been wearing two necklaces even — because I’m a giant dork, of course. Or because I don’t give a damn that it looks stupid, although the tangling is getting annoying. (One is my regular necklace, the other is two small keys on a shitty chain. This one has entimental value, despite being … a rather weird choice for a necklace.)
