I got a splinter.
By Roger ~ August 23rd, 2007. Filed under: General.
On Tuesday when we were weeding and laying down a weed mat over our “patio area” (in quotation marks because there is no patio there, but just a square surrounded by railroad ties). I was spreading some rocks over the weed mat to keep it in place until the crushed granite was delivered. I was pushing rocks up against the edges when suddenly a sharp pain drove through my left thumb. When I looked down, I saw an old, rotten, brown railroad tie splinter shoved halfway to the back of my thumbnail. Actually, it was more than halfway back until I clipped my thumbnail to get to the end of the splinter to yank it out with tweezers.
What fun.
