Okay, I need a breather after that week. Remember me bitching about not meeting men? Remember when I used to talk about other stuff too? Seriously when did this turn into a dating blog?
So I burnt my arm the other day at work and I very much wish I could upload pictures from my phone to this here blog but I can't figure it out for the life of me. My camera is still in the shop (seriously, what the hell is taking them so long). Instead I'll tell you that it's 2 inches across and 1.5 inches down, bright red and blistery. I didn't go to a doctor because I am a dumbass.
I think bright red is good - doesn't that mean it's healing? Any help anyone? I would Google it but we all know that turns into thinking you're going to die no matter the severity of the initial problem. I'm Polysporin-ing (it's a word) this SOB all week.
Ya, well enjoy this hungover rambling, I'm sure I'll come right home from work and delete it.
Kthxbai !!

Go to a doctor.
Red means infected I thought? Anyway, when my little sister gave me that wretched cigarette burn on my arm, I just doused it in neosporin and hoped for the best.
My arm hasn't fallen off yet, so that must be a good sign?
Damn lady! How'd you manage to do that???
If it doesn't get better with the magic of polysporin... doctor might be best!
like i tweeted - healthcare is freebies in canada.
use it.
arms are good things to have.
Ouch. sounds nasty.
I would agree with the general consensus of going to the doctor.
Then again, I rarely take my own advice.
I would cut it off.
If you can't live with one arm then you can't live. ask that Def Leppard guy.
eh, i'd say it's OK as long as it stays a nice pinkish red, and doesn't look infected or start hurting more. neosporin and aloe both = good ideas.
Ouch. See above. Go to the doctor if its blistery. If the blistering subsides, you're ok.
Must have hurt -- sorry to hear that.
I don't know anything about burns but I would just put some neosporin on it and see what happens.
It SHOULD heal!
Ugh, at least you are getting dates! Mine would be a dating blog if I went out on a few :x
"it's 2 inches across and 1.5 inches down, bright red and blistery." That's what she said.
I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. Go see a doctor, woman!
I like hearing all about your dates - if only to live vicariously through someone who goes on some!
Ouch! I burnt my hand on a toaster oven once, I agree as long as its pink and not too blistery I don't think a doctor will tell you to do anything different than put some neosporin on it.
