The Importance of Thumbs

Realization of the day: thumbs are actually quite important - and you only realize their importance after you lose the use of one


so i have this mug - in which i drink my tea. it's my favourite mug - has elephants all along the edge. i love elephants.

so one day, my mug's handle chipped - and because it was the handle and not the mouth or anything else, i decided to keep on using the mug. and it's been completely fine.

i had my tea yesterday - so i washed my mug. and then i was drying it - and i cut my thumb (quite deep actually) with the chipped part. so now i can't use my right thumb...

which is really annoying - it's hard to hold a spoon, to use a knife, to do up buttons, heck to even write.

ahhh thumbs...
