I have burnt my arm. In fact it currently looks like a 1.5 inch straight-line brand. Ow.

I have the portable fan heater on in our bedroom, because it's cold. It usually points under the bed, to warm the whole room. I decided to prop it up on books to make it warm my arse through the bars at the foot of the bed instead. All well and good. Then it got a bit hot, so I put my arm down through the bars to remove a book and thereby take the heat off my bottom. Mistake - I caught my arm on the bars and discovered that the heater warms them up really efficiently when it's on MAXIMUM at leass than a foot away. Branding ahoy.

I go sit in bathroom now, with cold water.

I have one of those! From baking.

Apparently, when you burn your skin enough you can do so much damage that you don't even notice that it's burning until you *smell* it.

Mmmm.

Just take good care of it. Keep it clean and when it scabs up, put neosporin on it. Shit. You people don't have that except as a prescription. Well. See if you can get one.

*hugs* Take care.
