Tonight I joined a group of my fellow Jaycee’s club members, for an evening of Christmas cookie-baking and drinks at the home of another member. I didn’t have any dinner before I went and of course I got a bit tipsy after having downed a Tom & Jerry and at least 2 mugs of hot buttered rum. Yummmmm

I ate a few cookies, as we were all allowed to eat the ones we screwed up. Thankfully I didn’t screw up too many, because when I got home my sugar high was plenty to keep me tearing through the place doing stuff.

Since all I consumed was alcohol and sugar during the course of the evening, I figured I’d better eat something more substantial like soup or something. So I was making some rice with hamburger in it. Naturally, fresh ground pepper is a great seasoning for such a dish, so as I grab the pepper container I notice the shaker top has very large holes in it. I decide that, instead of just shaking it on–thereby possibly causing a pepper overload–I wanted to be careful and just pour some into my palm of my hand and then add a pinch of it to the dish. So after I do that, I have this layer of dusty pepper residue in my palm. Well I knew from past cooking experiences, that when I have something dusty in my hands like flour or breadcrumbs and then dump it out, there’s still this fine residue left and to get the excess off I usually just briskly rub my palms together and kind of clap it off. I did that, and was good to go.

I had eaten my dinner, and then I went into the other room to sit down to check my email. A little while later, I decided to rub the corner of my eye because it felt a bit gritty after a long day. BAD MOVE! I had to run to the kitchen and flush my entire eye out with a glass of water, like they have you do in science class if you come into contact with something. KIDS! Do not try this at home. It’s pretty dang lethal!
