The Glass In My Foot

[rass]

God I hope we're still talking about the fingernail thing.

That would be a much MUCH larger problem than my thumb. Trust me.

[rass]

No one from the receptionist to the medical assistant to the doctor seemed interested in entertaining my apparently fanciful conjecture that there is still a piece of pasta wedged under my nail so he just sliced my thumb open and squeezed out some bloody pus and prescribed an antibiotic and told me to keep it clean.

You approach the gates of Swampville. Captain cerrano calls for to you to halt and to state your business.

You glance down at your graphic tunic and back up at cerrano. cerrano stares at it and then reads the words painted across your chest out loud:

"Who has two thumbs and wants to keep it that way?"

"This guy!" you say while using your thumbs to point at yourself.

cerrano notices your left thumb looks a little red and immediately orders the gates to be opened and for the guard to escort you to the tower of the town wizard, BFJ.

Inside his chambers, BFJ looks over your thumb and says "The only way to fix your thumb is to poke it hon, tis going to hurt".

You find his faux familiarity and forced diction somewhat offputting but assume it must be serving some higher purpose and let it slide and ask him to get on with it...
