Snappy Comebacks |
I had to have this little thing sliced off my face by the dermatologist last week. (Don’t worry, probably nothing bad.) Until it heals up, I’m wearing one of those little round bandages over it. It’s on the side of my face, and my hair covers it half the time, so probably nobody even notices. But I was a little disappointed that not one person* at work, at the wedding, or anywhere else asked me what happened, because I had a bunch of responses planned for when they did. Canary attack, malfunctioning stapler, angry chinchilla, etc.
I think it’s fun, when you have some minor/mundane injury, to make up a really cool story about what happened…
* Okay, one person asked – my grandmother. But I wasn’t about to lie to my grandmom, I just told her the truth :o)
One time Sean broke his finger and told everybody he was attacked by a monkey. It was rather fun to think of silly reasons so I can sense your disappointment! Glad to hear it was nothing serious though!
