Burned
Given the recent rash of self-reflective posts I've had in here, one might jump to the conclusion that the title of this post is figurative. Such a jump however would be wrong: I burned myself tonight... cooking chicken.
It hurts a lot -- more than it should really. I've had it on and off ice and cold water for over 2 hours now and when i take it off the ice it screams at me...
It's 2am and I'm supposed to sleep soon. Not sure how that's gonna happen though.
Stupid chicken. I need new oven mitts.

Burns are like, the worst kind of pain ever. You're doing the right thing with the cold water though. You can prevent some serious damage that way. Hope the pain eases up ASAP.

It did, and thanks everyone. Turns out that I think I overdid it a bit with the ice & cold water 'cause while it screamed at me when I removed the cold, after 15minutes of ignoring the pain, it finally went away and today I'm fine.

Put lavender oil on it. If it is 2nd degree, go see a doc.

Naw, I was using a real oven mitt at the time... it was just old and the padding had bunched up in some places leaving just the outer cotton layer between my finger and pan in one little spot. It would seem that the Fates didn't favour my finger that night ;-) A very unpleasant surprise to say the least.

I'm going to wait until you forget about this incident (what time is it now?) and then buy you an oven mitt and you'll be all "aw, you remembered!" and think I'm sweet and awesome.
I have the best ideas.
