"Right-o, let's try a bigger crane, then..."

"Oopsie."

Ouch!

About three hours ago, while making room in the refrigerator for the milk I knew cymrullewes would be bringing with her when she came home, I noticed spots of mold on two of the five fresh habaneros in a bag in the refrigerator.  So I took all five out, de-stemmed them all, trimmed out the two spots that were going bad, de-seeded four of the five, and put them in the freezer.  Since then, I have washed my hands thoroughly, at least twice -- possibly three times, I'm not sure -- using Simple Green (if you're not familiar with it, it's a non-toxic, biodegradeable, food-safe, industrial-strength degreaser and detergent).

I just rubbed my eyes with my knuckles.

OW OW OW OW OW FUCKING OW.  High-strength capsaicin in my limpid orbs.  OW.

Right now I can't get my right eye open for longer than about a second.  But it's improving ... for about the first thirty seconds, I couldn't open my left eye either.
