Bad Day

[Ozymandias]

Well, I was gonna post this at the end of my summer barbeque topic, as of 10:30 this morning. I had just burned my third and fourth fingers really badly on a hot melt glue gun. I pulled my hand away as soon as I felt it, but the glue, of course, stuck and kept burning. So I now have a blister the likes of which has never been seen before, right where I would normally hold a pencil. Hence the delay to my picture.<br><br>This was hurting all through the day, and, despite having run it under cold water for 10 minutes, it still felt hot so I was cooling it on a Lilt can that was for my lunch, just so I could keep working (no worky, no pay). So, as I was saying, this was hurting right up until about 2:30 pm when I sliced my thumb with a scalpel. Yes, it hurt. Yes, it bled. What else would it do? My whole hand went numb but I kept trying to do my job (nothing easy like typing - I had to make radio headsets), and so I only got half the amount done today that I did yesterday.<br><br>I was lucky though (always the optomist!) two times today though - The scalpel cut sideways into my thumb so it is only about a mil or 2 deep, so it probably won't leave a scar, and second I made it home (i walk) before this big-ass thunderstorm and 60 mph winds.<br><br>Such a thread with this on its own would be kinda lame so post ur own bad days (if u have one) and get some sympathy.

ul, the last time sum1 else gave me a lift out of the good of their heart they had an accident and their insurance company was like:<br>"What? Who are you?"<br>and they're like<br>"Me? I've only been payin u for insurance the last 3 months, is all"<br>and it all got kinda messy.<br><br>My point is, bad stuff happens to nice people (often volunteers).

[Holyman83]

poor guys I feel sorry for you.

[Gizensha]

Yeah. Hope you're ok.<br><br>...Couldn't you have gotten a couple of days off on sick leave or something, though?

Ooch, that ain't too good.<br><br>Well, the only thing that I can whine about is that I think my brain has somewhat deteriorated from maybe some lead poisoning or something so things are more confuzzling and less clear and then I might end up as some looney in the nuthouse, which would really suck.<br>Lol, and I wanna be a psychyatrist(sp?) when I'm older! Hee hee hee...<br>But then I could be completely wrong, I dunno, maybe this is just part of growin' up.

I had just got back from an 8-hour call of duty on IL-2 Sturmovik, and was just about to turn the engine off back at the airfield when the power cut. Frickin' summer storms...and in the UK too!

Can any one fix that for me. I have the pallet for photo shop, I just dont have photo shop to fix it.

[Ozymandias]

lol i got photoshop 7. Don't ask how, but i didnt pay lozza squids 4 it.

[Holyman83]

Do you think you could convert the file for me. from what I read you should be able to load the pallet and then the pic and save it. I should convert to the pallet colors by itself.

[Ozymandias]

I could give it a go, I suppose, yes.
