Well I'm back after quite the impromptu spring break trip to South Carolina to see/help my sister with FOUR little kids. Usually she just has two but her daughter (who lives around HERE) is visiting AND brought a little friend. So yeah, me to the rescue.
While there I was coming in from the patio and caught my second toe on the metal threshold. After holding onto the kitchen counter in pain for a little bit I examined the damage and my nail has been ripped completely off save for some slivers near the cuticle. My first thought was just to rip it the rest of the way off and get it over with. But I read that doing that would just increase risk of infection.. So we cleaned it, sprayed it, neosporined it and then wrapped it up. Now I'm waiting for it to fall off as it sits there quite crooked.
I've never have a nail fall off before, have you? Tell me about it in the comments! I'd love to know how long it's gonna take!
ALSO HUGE HUGE HUUUUGE shout out to Goldenrod :iconcrazyyellowfox: for using some spare computer parts he had around to build me a very very decent frankenmachine!
I'm totally floored by his generosity! I'm still int he process of getting all the programs set up to speed on it, including art programs. Which I'm sure I'll have done by tonight!!
SO SPEAKING OF. I'm home and ready to take a few commissions to catch up on some bills. I'm going to take a limited number so grab em while you can!
ARGH I WANT ICONS but saving for a special tattoo :( When I was little, I had a high fever and lost all my fingernails and toenails. I had to keep the covered because they were sensitive and I think, though not sure, it was so I didnt get an infection. Ill ask my mom in the morning, she would remember

Oh man, that's a side effect of a high fever I've never heard before, that's pretty interesting. Sorry you had to go through that but it's kind of wicked.

Yea I was a little kid but I remember it was painful but not too bad. But mom said the doctor said bandaids to keep them safe and from ripping them out early and they gave me meds to fight infection but, if you keep em clean and such you probably wont need it, i was a kid and you know how they are, into everything. If you have flipflops wear those instead of shoes.
