2. Bought the new Kelley Armstrong book, Frostbitten. This was sort of a comedy of errors, since the guy at Borders hadn't put it on the shelves yet, but had put it on the "we're putting this on shelves" cart, which meant there were no copies in the back of the store. I eventually located the cart, thus locating my book, and money was exchanged, rather than bloodshed.
3. Read the new Kelley Armstrong book, Frostbitten. What? I read fast. Also, it was so awesome I couldn't put it down. I love Kelley Armstrong's work so much.
4. Watched the final episode of season three of Primeval, the second-to-last episode of season one of Warehouse 13, and two more of the audition episodes for the current season of So You Think You Can Dance. A few people have informed me that they don't believe I watch as much television as I say I do. To them I say: you're probably right. I think I watch substantially more.
5. Sort of accidentally knocked out a thousand words on Deadline, which will get included in the next word count post, because I'm feeling too lazy to bother with doing that much math right now.
How about you?

2) Answered 30 emails, printed about a ream of documents to review/file
3) Drove across town in rush hour traffic to pick up husband's order at the beauty supply store (he's a hairstylist and makeup artist...yes, my hair looks FABULOUS most of the time!)
4) Arrived home, was closely trailed by one cat and the Corgi, took over meal prep/house prep tasks from hubby.
5) Sliced my right thumb open with a very sharp (Cutco!) knife...swore a lot, scared the cat and the dog.
6) Had hubby do a quick bandaging job....drove to ER (20 mi away) to get 6 stitches and an impressive bandage that covers my thumb and half my hand.
7) Missed dinner AND dinner guest but got bonus prize of updated tetanus shot at ER.
8) Drove back home in the rain at 10 PM...picked at leftovers from dinner. Avoided the green salsa that I was making when I cut myself.
9) Took pain meds, got ice pack and add'l pillow for hand...threw in the towel and went to bed.

Coworkers today are suggesting that due to a rash of injuries and bad luck, I should move to a safer place...like Kabul or Tiajuana. They may have a point!
