I am a nice long walk around the block...

Milk does the body good
A few days ago, I had a pretty rough encounter. I got pepper sprayed! Well, actually, I wasn't "sprayed" so much as I rubbed it on my face when I was fixing Cic's pepper spray thingy(It broke when she threw her keys at me. She wasn't mad, her buzzer thing to open the front door doesn't work). So I guess the canister was cracked or something as I was trying to put in back into its case. But after I was done trying to fix it, I must have rubbed my face or something. Cuz soon enough, my lip started to burn slightly. I kindof waved it off, thinking that I it was just a case of when my lips feel like they're burning or something. But the burning sensation started to spread...and get more intense. I was telling Cic that it started to hurt, and proceeded to go to the faucet and throw some cold water on it...big mistake. I guess it incited the effect because soon, it spread to my eyes and my whole face was burning! And when I say burning, I mean BURNING, it felt as if someone had a lighter and was holding it to my face. (I was to find out later that there is some chemical in pepper spray that tricks your brain and intensifies the pain you are feeling...so it's not physically as bad, but your brain is telling you it is). I was in freakin agony...at this point, saliva was coming out nonstop from my mouth and mucus dripping from my nose...while tearing like crazy and still my face burned. We called Chris to research a remedy for it and he told us that Milk would work. Luckily her roomie had some milk(non-spoiled thank God) and I began to wash my face with it. Kinda gross washing your face w/ milk man...but it began to relieve the pain soon enough. It wasn't until after about 15 minutes that the pain completely subsided. Kinda funny to think that milk was the remedy for this thing. Who would've thunk it? Man....agony I tell you...don't ever let someone get you w/ that stuff... It's worse than it looked on Jackass...trust me.

I got the power!
...Mach 3 Power that is. Actually, I don't HAVE the power, I WANT the power. One of my coworkers swears by the new mach 3 razor...the one that has the electric stimulus thing for the hair follicles so that shaving is much smoother. I wanna try it for my head. I'm excited, I wanna see if it's really gonna be easier to shave my head. I'd still rather opt for a permanent hair removal system, not electrolysis though, I'm afraid of frying the few brain cells I already have left. Update to come...

Two words about the NBA finals so far...

FREAKIN LAKERS!!!!
