Wow. What an incredibly awful morning. I was supposed to go for a walk with G at 9, then go to a movie with Flex at 12:40. I ended up sleeping in until 8:30, thus missing the hike. While I was moving through my morning, I was interrupted several times by various creatures. The dogs started barking horrible at another dog passing by the yard and I went outside to stop them and, unknowingly, brushed against a pricker bush. I thought I had gotten them all out of the yard last week. Gah. I was completely covered in the stupid little things. So I went into the bathroom to undress and pick them off, thus covering all the towels in prickers. I spent about 30 minutes pulling prickers out of my shirt, skirt and the towels. Now, my fingers are full of those little fiberglass-like needles the prickers have in them. Everything I touch sends a sharp little pain through my fingertips, including typing. I can’t even see the blasted little buggers to take them out. They are embedded below my skin level. On top of that… I’m still tired. I guess those nights of 4-6 hour sleep sessions are catching up to me. *sigh*

I just want to restart my day. If only I could find the control-alt-delete keys. *hangs head in despair*

Yow. If you have plain white glue you can spread some on your fingers, let it dry, then peel it off. It should take most of the prickly bits with it.

I have found myself looking for the reset button lately. I have even attempted to commission people to make me one, but to no avail. It would be quite handy!

So if anyone out there wants to make a nice, big, shiny, red day reset button (as day reset buttons should be in an arresting color like red, don't you think?), we shall be forever grateful (most probably to the point of showering the provider with assorted baked goods *wink*).

Terribly sorry your day has been prickly! I was going to suggest peel-off facial masque, but the Elmer's glue is probably something you would have to hand.

That's a really good one. Sometimes you can soak them out with a long hot bath too.
