BAD combo: Hot Glue Gun and opposable thumbs.
Burned BOTH thumbs, oh ouch ouch ouch ouch... yes, the PHILANGES are a very delicate and sensitive part of the body.

And worse, nary a blister. Nothing to even show for the scorching pain.

*sigh*

Wait, are the thumbs still considered philanges? Did I spell that right?

1. I'll give you this:
you always find inventive ways to injure yourself.

I hope you're better soon.

3. I badly burned myself with a hot glue gun, requiring medial attention
I used to do display work. Got too fast and loose with the gun. I still have the scars on my wrist.

5. And even if you get the wound to cold water -- which would be hard to do
on the set, that crap BURNS and BURNS and BURNS til it cools AND THEN you can rip it off.

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh.

But you have to admit, glue guns ROCK.

7. You know, websters.com should be on a pop-up or something.
Looking it up takes away from the stream of consciousnous.

And I know I didn't spell THAT right either.
