Last tuesday, my three little monkeys were jumping on the bed, one fell off and broke his...arm. Yup, little jon-jon is the first to have broken a bone. it truly is amazing with three boys that it has taken this long! So, daddy took him to urgent care (best kept secret in tucson- el dorado urgent care, what used to be the hospital- no wait, and super good care!).
He got a cast a few days later. Then, saturday i used all my intellect to do a completely stupid thing. You know the chocolate shell topping that gets hard on ice cream? well, i put it in the fridge, which made it hard. i decided i wanted some ice cream, and put it in the microwave to turn it back to liquid. i didn't really think about the fact that it's, like, 75% oil. so, i took it out of the micro, put the lid back on it, and shook it. it then exploded all over my arm and gave me a second degree burn. I now have a super-nasty blister on my right hand.

THINGS I'VE LEARNED: monkeys will be monkeys; chocolate will, indeed, hurt you; when you only have one hand it's hard to wash your hair, but it's harder to shave your armpits.
