THE FLESH IS WEAK

Specifically, the flesh on the tip of my right thumb, which I managed to get cut on the edge of a freshly-opened can of corn. I'm just surprised at how often I seem to use the tip of my thumb for things -- like, for instance, typing. I'm just glad the cut's not on the side of the thumb that I use to hold a violin bow.

I'm going to take the Band-Aid off for a bit and let it breathe. For some reason, keeping it all cooped up and moist seems less than ideal.
