Snap!

Not very often have I blogged about breaking a nail. In fact, I have never blogged about breaking a nail....until now. My fingernails are very hard and if they break it usually takes a pretty good whack to get them to snap. Yesterday I was reaching for a cupboard door at work and hit my thumb into the cabinet so hard it snapped backwards, breaking about 2 mm below the skin line. I had two students in the room at the time and they both frieked out as the blood started to ooze! Needless to say it hurt pretty bad. (I was going to include a picture, but that is gross...)
