So, I have a pirate who doesn’t smile enough to suit me. Even for photos! It’s Calico Zak.
See?
So I gave the camera to The Cap’n and told him I wanted 5 smiling pictures of his brother.
So, as I’ve mentioned, the Pirates didn’t fall far from the ship. I think he’s kinda smiling, what do you think? Actually, the Pirates think this is way funnier than I do. As their mama, I find this, even in jest, mildly upsetting to my senses, I don’t mind that they find it funny. The Cap’n brought the camera to show me the pics. Calico Zak stayed outside to hack at the dead part of the tree.
Anyway, a few minutes after this, Calico Zak comes in the door kinda making a noise, and he’s got his back to me. He’s not trying to hide, he’s trying to protect me from my weak constitution. I don’t do blood. Sorry, if you’re losing more than … any at all. Forget it, I don’t do blood. So, The Cap’n came to his brother’s rescue and helped him to the sink, because it is anathema to bleed on the floor, I might see it. After an eternity,(maybe 15 seconds) and wild imaginings on my part, I am informed that it’s “not that bad, really.” I, of course, thought it was a finger or thumb, people can live without those, right? He’ll live. Nooooo. It’s his face. Fortunately, I found out that it was his face at about the same time I realized he was hardly bleeding after all, really.
I think he was hoping for a more dramatic black-eye or something, but even after 24 hours it doesn’t look too impressive.
And even after 2 days out, not really that bad after all. So, the lesson here is, no matter how bored you are, safety first! And really? NO BLEEDING ON THE FLOOR!
