It never rains -- it pours

olde_fashionedJust a note to everyone -- I'm currently having LJ problems, and I can't read any of my messages, and not all of the notices are coming through in email. So if I'm not answering you, it's not because I'm ignoring you! I most likely can't read it. *scowl* Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?
As for my personal life, I'm STILL trying to kick this stupid cold!! It's been over a week now, and I'm still congested, but my throat is feeling better at least. Yay for Halls lozenges!
Last night we were having what we call a "wing-it" night for dinner, (translation: I'm too lazy to cook) and frozen pizza was the delicacy of choice. While taking it out of the oven, (I always use a cookie sheet to slide under the pizza, whilst keeping it in place with a metal spatula) I managed to burn myself across the knuckles on the wire rack, and drop the pizza topping side down (of course!) onto the bottom of the freshly-cleaned oven. *sighheaddesksigh* It's partly my own fault for neglecting to wear oven mitts, since this isn't the first time I've burned myself baking pizza, but this particular pizza came out of the box with a broken crust, so that's another part of the reason it fell off the sheet. That and the fact that I'm just a big clutz.
I got really upset, since I didn't feel too great in the first place, and my hands were even shaking. Thankfully they aren't burned bad at all -- just a few red marks that should disappear eventually. My mom came to the rescue and cleaned up the mess I'd created, and wasn't mad at me at all, and Spencer was happy to eat the topping-less pizza, insisting he liked it that way. We made another pizza, and this time I let my mom take it out! Afterwards I consoled and calmed myself with chocolate chip cookies and CSI: Miami.
Congratulations if you've read this far! You have great patience, and are able to tolerate boring nothingness posts with relative ease. Thanks for letting me vent.
(note to self: OVEN MITTS!!!)
