Distractions from Writing

Lunchtime. Yesterday. I made Hot Pockets for the kids and I. Nice change after eating soup all week with sick kids. So, got everyone’s pockets heated up, took mine out of the microwave, took a bite and holy schmuk!

That bugger burned my lip!

Note to self: Don’t eat Hot Pockets straight out of the microwave.

Today I have a nice little blister right on my bottom lip. Poor lip. Not a good place for a blister. And as long as I don’t try eat anything else, it really doesn’t hurt. Feels kinda weird, but not painful. Kinda like a blood blister or something.

I mean, it’s just there. A small bump on my lip. I can’t even see the thing, for crying out loud!

But . . . It’s very distracting.

You wouldn’t think it would be. But it is.
