I’m back I’m back!!!

Did you all miss me? I bet you did.

I am having a painful day. I still have four pieces of glass embedded in various parts of my body, I just sliced my hand open on a frozen pizza and my tatto really really hurts and itches! Garr!

To take my mind off it all I’d predict **redfury**

Well, gosh. Was I actually supposed to check and see if I was mentioned here? I apparently was, a loooooong time ago.

Anyway, I’ll go with **Osip** , but I’m figuring on that not happening.

Ok, if **NCB** can tell strange foot stories, I can tell strange glass stories. Just promise not to laugh.

At about 1am on Tuesday night, a friend and I decided that we wanted to make an ice lolly. Out of wine. So we found a bottle of wine, shoved a wooden spoon in it and stuck it in the freezer for a few hours.

You can see what’s coming can’t you?

Once it was frozen we toddled out into my garden (in our pjamas and with bare feet and it was cold!) and I smacked the bottle of frozen wine against a brick wall. Instead of breaking neatly into 2 halves as I had envisaged, it exploded and flew everywhere. Bummer.

I somehow managed not to get hit by any glass at that point. The lolly worked quite well except it tasted really really really horrible. My friend wanted a photo of her and the lolly. I took her camera and sat down on our garden bench to take the picture and managed to sit on a number of tiny little shards of glass. That is how the pieces in my butt and leg occured. When I stood up I managed to stand on a number of tiny little shards of glass. That is how the piece in my foot occured. I don’t know how I managed to get a piece in my arm.

Yes, I know it was a completely stupid thing to do and next time I’ll buy a box of ice pops. 🙂

Anyway, after that amusing interlude I predict **verbenabeast**.

Nope, you get **Angua** taking a break from her work.

Sadly I didn’t get a picture of the wine bottle antics. I was too busy going “OW! OW! ow ow owowowow OW! My bum!” to worry about photos.

_ **Angua** looks up from her books to see who’s around_

Hi people!

_She quickly realises tht prognosticating is detrimental to doing work, so she posts quickly, adding that **sperfur** will be next, before going back to the books_
