I have found over the years that I am good at cutting things. Maybe "things" is a bit too broad. I try to cut fresh bread and it looks like I have attempted to make a pyramid. I cut vegetables and they are all different shapes and sizes. Kind of like if you drop a piece of glass and it shatters. Lots of different sizes. Yep. That's what my veggies look like. Mike, on the other hand, is a master at slicing bread and chopping vegetables. He makes it look easy. Everything perfect and professional looking. Anyway, I have found that I have a talent for cutting myself. I don't even require anything major to help me with this. I have cut myself with steak knives, butcher knives, butter knives, and forks. Yes. You read that right. Forks! I know. It's a talent. Go ahead. Take a moment to be jealous. :) My latest scar to be is from washing a butcher knife. I usually don't use this knife because, well, it's sharp. I don't have much feeling in my hands and that with my knack for slicing skin is not a good combination. Therefore, I don't use this particular knife very often. I was trying to be nice though. The boys (and Mike) were getting home from high adventure for scouts and I wanted them to have a special treat. How was I to know it wouldn't work out so well. haha
It doesn't look like much, but it is a very nice slice along the meaty part of my fourth finger. Don't worry. I didn't cut the whole thing off. There is still skin keeping it attached like a bad hair toupee. haha Now if I were only as good at healing as I am at slicing!
