Hot glue disaster

I may have accidentally injured myself yet again....this time involving hot glue in a large electric skillet set to a temperature of 350 degrees.  Lets just say it hurt...a lot.  And you know when you burn yourself you try to automatically wipe it off on something?  Well that something was my other hand....not a smart choice at the time.  Luckily a water faucet was nearby so I could run my hands under water to allow the glue to solidify.  Then pulling the glue off I lost a large section of skin on my finger and the other hand had a blister bubble of liquid.  


So that was the beginning of my day....great start huh?  The rest of the day my hands were stinging unless I put pressure on them...which was a little odd.  You would think pressure on a burn would hurt...but no.


The rest of the day was spent in the goat yard with 2 stints of taking out animals.  


I also told this guy to please not smoke in the zoo as we are completely non-smoking and his response...ok im going up to the entrance to leave anyways....and walked off.  I was like ok but you still need to put it out.  He walked off trying to hide it in his hands....like we wont notice smoke coming from your hand?  ugh


Also a mother was in lorikeets talking to her daughter and was like "oh honey did you hear the big bird flying overhead?  You could hear the wings".  The daughter responded "mom that was a helicopter"  Mother looks up "oh so it is"             


I also found 2 really cool leaves today.

  1. Trying squishing one of those star-shaped leaves up in your hand and smelling it. That is one of my favorite trees! Liquidambar styraciflua
