From about.com;

Victims with burns to the following areas need emergency medical assistance (call 911):

• face
• hands
• feet
• genitalia

That’s right; if you burn your genitalia, call 911. I’d have never thought of that.

Okay, I checked google after our 6 hour trip to ER to have my burnt hand investigated; I was curious what degree this was, and hadn’t thought to ask. 2nd degree over about 1/3 of my palm, and on one all but one finger joint. Apparently I hold my pinky out when I’m scorching the holy living fuck out of my hand with a pot that I forgotcame from the oven. Picked that bad boy up with a full, tight grip, lifted this 425 degree Farenheit piece of iron off the stove and blacked out.

I don’t recall which was louder, the screaming or the sizzling. Hey, who’s cooking bacon? Thankfully I did not spill the bubbling scalloped potatoes down my pants or anything.

I hate burns.

This one was bad, so off to the ER to abuse their ice machine for 6 hours… I got a tetanus shot; how exciting!

I do, however enjoy codeine … hoping it kicks in soon so I can sleep.

Pictures tomorrow (later today)!
