    Blisters

    I have a BIG blister on my thumb (on the pad) that I got from work today (making caramel apples) and it is a huuuuuugeeeeeeeeee annoyance. I've heard not to pop it, and I know I shouldn't, but its just ARGH!!! So annoying! And it doesn't hurt, yet, but I keep playing with it because eventhough its annoying when I'm driving or using the mouse, etc, it feels sooo cool. But the more I mess with it, the bigger it gets.

    Should I leave it alone and just suck it up? I actually have two blisters on teh same thumb, its just realllly tiny.

    Leave it alone, sooner or later, you will accidently bust it anyway... Then watch out for any signs of infection!

    LOL yeah I wish I still worked at PetCo, I miss it. Well I mostly miss the people I worked with, but I am definitely getting faster raises here AND lots more hours so I'm making more money at the Fudgery.

    But we make caramel apples, too, but that's it. Our particular store only makes regular fudge, plain caramel apples, and caramel apples with pecans. Other stores sell lemonaid, ice-cream, make sugar-free fudge (we sell it but don't make it, our machine broke), and other cool stuff.

    Well, normally I'd say not to pop it. Because like Laura says, it's going to pop on its own. But, I'm figuring that it will make up its mind to pop while you're at work and the "juice" will get into the food. Eeeewwwww!
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.
