- Hoo boy, wish I would have done that last time I gave Teager a bath. Boy,
- was I mad when she got out and got real dirty once... it was a
- particularly shitty time in life, too, so I overdid it... I held this
- kitty firmly under my arm as I drew the water, saying angry stuff to her,
- chiding her for getting dirty, etc... and when I dunked her in, boy did I
- get bit -- right in the thick at the base of the thumb, probably pinched a
- nerve right to the bone! I'm a keyboard player, and I lost sensation in a
- part of my thumb for a while (minor, but scary).
