Grooming is dangerous

I cut myself at the gym today. I wasn't sure how it happened at first. I had just brushed my hair and when I touched my ear after I felt something and then saw blood all over my left index finger. I then realized there was blood on my ear also. It was very confusing and at first I didn't know if it was my ear or my finger that was bleeding. I then saw that there was skin separated on my finger so that solved that problem but then came the how, how had I cut my finger? My first instinct was that somehow my ear had done it. Maybe I had developed a mutant ability to have razor ears. I was scared to touch my ear in case it cut me somewhere else. It came to me then that I had a safety razor (not a very good name, is it?) in my toiletries bag and I must have cut my finger when I reached in to grab my brush. I started giggling when I realized this and the other guy in the locker room gave me a weird look. I would have explained it to him but he was wearing headphones so it probably would have been too complicated to explain and I just let it go. I then had to use a tissue to wipe the blood from my ear. As I was packing up my things with a tissue on my finger to stop the bleeding (I was too embarrassed to ask a gym attendant for a band aid) the guy walked by and again gave me a weird look. I wonder if he is telling people about the guy who was bleeding and giggling in the locker room. Probably not.

Tablet

I'm still not quite used to typing on my tablet but I like it and think it was worth while. I've heard others say it's hard to explain what their tablet is used for but it's used a lot and I think that's right. I'm at my parents house tonight so I don't have my usual assortment of toys but I didn't bring a laptop, just the tablet because I knew it would suit me just fine. OK, now I'm kind of annoyed typing on this. But for everything else it works fine. Shut up.

Nanowrimo

It's national novel writing month and I really wanted to participate this year. But as you can see if you scroll down, I haven't done much writing ummm...ever. Also, I thought of a great idea and while I remember where I was when I thought up the idea, I don't remember what the idea was. I would rather those be reversed but it is what it is.

So I guess the point is I'm not writing a novel this month. Try to contain your disappointment for there is good news, I resolved to start blogging (I was going to say again but I'm surprised I have even 5 posts on here. I guess I did more on livejournal but still, I'm not sure I ever started). So I guess this is a start.

We'll see if I make it through more than 5 posts this time. But as nanowrimo as my witness I'd have to say...probably? I'm not really sure what I post on Twitter vs. this vs. Facebook. Obviously there are character restraints on Twitter and Facebook is more for pictures of babies. Then again, people actually know those exist. You have to start somewhere and unless I marry a Kardashian I'm starting with nothing. To be clear, I realize you can't marry a Kardashian with nothing, I'm fine with that. Hopefully as I keep doing this I get better at finishing these posts.
