Pinkie Swear

I missed my belly dancing class tonight at Champion due to an unforeseeable act of hot mess-ness.

Last night after watching the incredibly cheesy craphole only salvageable by moderately outstanding CGI movie know as Clash of the Titans, I was escorted back to my apartment by my date to fill our minds up with the intelligent humor that is Chris Rock’s stand-up. As I went to close the sliding glass door, I turned to say something witty and irresistibly charming to said date – only to slam it right on my pinkie finger.

What is it about cute boys that turns me from Diva to Dumbass?

Woke up this morning with a black nail and the knowledge I could actually feel the steady beating of my heart in my little finger. I spent the day wearing a lovely metal contraption. Look, RoboCorey!



And seeing as I couldn’t really type today, I decided to ponder the uses of the pinkie finger. Not having it really made these things difficult for me today:

  1. As I said, typing.  Guess I couldn't work too much today
  2. Doing dishes. Yeah, those are going to hang out in the sink tonight
  3. Folding laundry. I have other clothes, right?
  4. Driving a car. No really, it was hard
  5. Cleaning ANYTHING. I was really sad about that one.

However, in the midst of this tragic accident, I actually discovered some things you CAN do perfectly fine without a pinkie finger!

  1. Sitting around and lazily watching last week’s episodes of 24 and America’s Next Top Model
  2. Grocery shopping at Trader Joe’s (the metal splint garners sympathy and gets the guys there to do everything for you)
  3. Buying/pouring/sipping a delicious pinot noir
  4. Devouring a box of dark chocolate and almond cookie
  5. Taking stupid pictures of your bionic finger
  6. And of course, typing seeming to work out fine when it’s for your blog.
