Woot! More painting toys! :) I bought a $4 tackle box from WalMart, and it is *perfect* for holding select colors for a travel paint kit. It holds 38 colors, plus an extra pot of extender, a pot of float improver, a pot of primer, and a small bottle of matt sealant. There is a centimeter or so of extra space between two of the rows of paint that I can store paint brushes in, and I was able to fit my ceramic tile in there, also. Not my spiffy ceramic dish, but the tile at least fits, so it's all good.

Hm. Just had a thought. I wonder if I should grab one of those tackle boxes for Eric before I start sending him a bunch of stuff...

On another note, this weekend I injured my right wrist. Note I did not say I hurt it, because, for the oddest unknown reason, it did not and still does not hurt. I don't know how it happened but on Saturday evening, as I was washing my hands to take out my contacts (I'm blind without them), I looked down to see the inside of my wrist horribly swollen and discolored. I think the most alarming part was that there was no pain. I still don't know how it happened, but I discussed it briefly with my boss, who is both an accountant and a registered nurse. She examined it and told me it was a burst capilary. She also prescribed pineapple because the bromilin (sp?) in it will break down the lose blood. Darn! I get to eat a lot of pineapple! ;)

Anyway, I've been keeping it wrapped to keep the swelling down, and it's a good thing my blood is thick or it would look worse. The swelling is almost completely gone, and its color has already toned down from the ugly purple bruise to a brownish bruise with purple tones. Heh.

I also played some DAoC this weekend with Matt. His Irish is up because a lot of the old timers have quit to join more "leet" guilds. This is good for me (odd as it may seem) because finally and again we share a very time consuming hobby. There has been quite a bit of guild drama over it, which I guess is past due, since the Fianna hasn't had drama in a while. I've got pretty strong feelings about it, too. I'll save my rant when I've puzzled out the reasons for why I feel the way I do.

Matt sealant?!? Did he spring a leak AGAIN?!? ;)

Hope your swelling/injury thing gets better soon. :)

"Matt sealant?!?" :P That's how it's spelled on the bottle, so not my fault those Spaniards can't translate to English very well.

My wrist seems to be healing well - it doesn't hurt, though so it's difficult to tell, LOL.
