Today was pretty windy, and part of my job today at work was to change the letters on the sign outside. I do it most Sundays, so it wasn’t a big deal. I’ve done it when it was windy before. Heck, I’ve done it in rain, snow, and 105° weather before. No biggie.
Nope. The wind blew one of those black plastic letters and it hit me square in the nose! Now my nose is all swollen, starting to turn purple, and I’ve got this big cut right across the bridge of my nose.
And if that wasn’t the worst part, my nose is so swollen that it hurts to wear my glasses, so I’m stuck being… well, kind of blind. My vision is awful. I’m probably about a foot from my screen right now, and I can’t read the words I’m typing. And I look funny, to top it all off!!
My other minor disaster happened just a few minutes ago. I’m a complete Firefox fangirl, but I guess it has its days just like every other program ever made. I customized the heck out of mine… plugins, custom theme, all these options changed… it was exactly how I wanted it. Nope, all back to default when I opened it just now. I’ve got to start ALL over again! Curses, Firefox!
Edit: Life gets better. Painkillers have made me temporarily forget about my nose, and I restarted Firefox and all of my tweaky goodness has returned. Hooray!
life does get better. heh.
sorry about your nose though.
i bet it really hurt when the letter that flew hit you.
i hope you feel better!

My firefox bookmarks tool bar used to frequently disappear on me; I haven’t any idea why but it was so very annoying! Glad to hear you feel better.
