hoping sooner then later
this project is killing me piece by piece
lost a 1/8 " of my left middle finger
slipped with the razor knife cutting wire today
bled for about 45 min before i went med 7
they made me soak it in what looked like coca-cola
for 20 min then put some weird Styrofoam on the end to clot
the blood then kicked me out,so while waiting to pay i looked at my
finger all wrapped up soaked in blood i went back in for some warranty
work! told them it didn't work? lets try again
2nd time it actually worked
this sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
