Note to self #1:

You now have metal on one of your teeth. The metal in the pull tab from a soda can is reactive with the metal in your brand new filling, at least in a saline-ish solution, like saliva. This means that, if you tap your teeth with a soda can pull tab, now, you will get an electric shock directly to the pulp inside your tooth.

Note to self #2:

When standing in, say, a bathroom, on a ladder, changing a bunch of burned-out bulbs at once, you will have to get rid of those bulbs. You may figure, "Hey, the bathroom trash can just has paper towels and stuff like that in it, so there's nothing hard in there that a light bulb can break against. So I can just throw it in from here, without coming down off the ladder." Please note: that logic MAY work for the FIRST light bulb you throw, but note that it fails for the SECOND one. (For sake of argument, assume that you actually WILL get the light bulb in the trash can, and not have it land on the hard tile floor.)

*twitch* OW!

"Hey, the bathroom trash can just has paper towels and stuff like that in it, so there's nothing hard in there that a light bulb can break against..."

Except maybe the bottom of the trash can? ;)

Softish plastic trash can. Really, the only thing there was in the can for the bulb to break against was . . . the other bulb.

Ow! Ow ow!

Please be nicer to my favorite ex-boyfriend, ok? He's a wonderful man, and very important to me.

A.
