Red Ink causes concern...

[DrZoidberg]

While at work yesterday I was goofing around with a red pen while marking up a document. I hadn't been paying much attention to what I was doing and I finally looked at my hand and noticed that the pen had leaked red ink all over my hand. I washed it off as best I could and went on with my day. Last night before going to bed I shaved. Again, watching my razor more than my hand. Suddenly I caught a glimpse of my hand in the mirror and spotted the big red blotches. Talk about instant panic. For about 15 seconds I stood in front of the mirror, razor down, trying to find the source of all that blood before I realized the days events... Just a note, if you cover your hand in red ink, remember how it happened while your shaving.

Heh Heh.

Last week, our power blinked for about 10 seconds. I was shaving and in the middle of a stroke. I thought "oh, boy. What now?" Then the lights came back on! Crisis averted.

I'm glad you weren't bleeding.

After the initial shock, I'll bet the relief was something else.

A similar sense of horror/relief occurs to me about a day after eating a salad with lots of beets in it. I'll spare you gents the grisly details...

Thanks for sharing a truly amusing story with us. It put a smile on my face and started my day off right not only with a laugh but with the realization that I don't want to use a red pen...ever.

Great story.


Next time you see red on your hand, you'll think it is just red ink...until you take a look at your neck.
