Eggs, unbidden

Last night as we were out walking around, some assholes in a car hurled a plastic bag containing at least two, possibly three, eggs at us. I wonder if this means that they were dividing up a dozen eggs into other bags, with the intent of egging a lot of people.
Anyhoo, I got some kinda cool egg-injuries.


This is from last night, after I washed the egg off. The impact site was all welted up.


Right hand, last night. It hurt a lot for a little while, and since my right hand already has repetitive stress problems, &c, I was a bit worried about how it would come out of this. It seems okay though, just a little tender.


Right hand, this morning. Lots better, and the impact pattern is really apparent when I close my thumb up alongside my hand.


Left arm, this morning. This is the most clear depiction of the impact. It's actually a pretty fascinating illustration. The little cuts are from bits of eggshell, obviously.

So, all in all, it could have been much worse. Neither of us got hit in the face, neither of us was badly cut or had a finger caught at a bad angle and sprained or anything. And now I guess I know what it looks like when skin is hit with an egg. You do too, I suppose.

Schmeckt nicht

Okay, so I installed the del.icio.us plugin like everyone else, so as to have the whole aggregated bookmarks functionality thing, and the freaking beasts hijacked my 'save file as' right click menu position. God! I was USING that spatial location. You assholes.
