The cheese shaver shaved my thumb.

So my thumb is recovering well. Unfortunately it will lack both nerves and a finger print....oh well. And I actually get the willies just holding the damn cheese shaver....a little PTSD I think.

Also, I've been calling a buddy of mine in Europe to offer support around the dissolution of his marraige. Now as for this institution, at it's core is a vow....to God and eachother. The bottom line being if you have a problem in your relationship....drum roll....you work it out. Crazy concept, huh. It's the abject defiance to merely entertaining the notion that things can be worked through and fixed thats truly heartbreaking. He's fallen in love with a different woman...the one now is a complete stranger. I truly wish him well.
