Coles Notes version: I'm typing this on my phone. I'll add photos and so on as soon as I get back to my home computer -- my netbook just bricked.
Day 12-14: BORING. Interminable food prep. More paper cutting. I haven't needed to so much as strop the main blade this whole time. FACT: it's a bit tricky cutting a grapefruit with this thing without making a huge mess. It worked, though.
Day 15 is irony time! After an hour-long night bike ride, which my relatives hate, I went for a leisurely walk, with which they are fine. Half a click from my house I slipped on the asphalt pedestrian walkway and did a pretty number on my right calf. Little Mac cleaned the worst of the cuts before I soap-and-watered. I'll post pictures of the semi-healed and clean cuts for reference, but I did not take pictures at the time.
Day 16 is Idiot Time
TM. I forgot my work keys this morning. Fortunately, no-one was around, and the door to my workplace was installed backwards, with the latching hardware on the outside of the weather stripping. Little Mac's main blade was enough to get me into the building without damaging anything. From there, it was gravy. Whew! There are no pictures of this, for possibly obvious reasons.
There will, however, be a picture of me breaking into the toilet paper dispenser in the staff washroom with the scissors. For the record, it was to add MORE paper, and not to steal it. I did this with
Vicky after the
Huntsman Challenge, and now we know the smaller scissors can also work as a makeshift TP key.
Pictures when computatored!
