incredibly pissed off

so... i am not in a good mood.  i own 4 pet rats, and one of them is fairly sick.  after cleaning out it's cage earlier, i put some of its medicine on my finger to give to it, and it pretty much tore my left pointer finger clean open.  hardcore.  as in it's still bleeding an hour later.  and i don't have any extra money to go to the docs right now, and it is killing me when my finger decides for a few seconds that it doesn't want to feel numb anymore.  and this rat has NEVER bitten me before.  i might need a couple of stitches, and i'm sure i need to get on some antibiotics.  it's already bruising too.  and i work a job where i use my hands all the time... so not cool. 

i think the thing that worries me most is that i was using insecticide right b4 this happened (i washed my hands in between), but that stuff doesn't come off u'r skin easily... and now watch, it prolly got into the wound.

so much for my day being good.  this has pretty much ruined my mood, not to mention anything i do with my hands. 


also... this took me forever to type!

Oh no! I'm so sorry that your day has gone badly. That really sucks about your rat, too. I hope you feel better, and that it heals quickly. ♥

i just changed the bandages on it... and it's still bleeding. it hurts even worse than earlier. depending on how it feels tomorrow morning, i'm gonna prolly have to go to the docs and get a stitch or two to keep it closed if it won't stop opening up.

gah... i HATE stitches.
