treesprite November 19, 2009 November 19, 2009 because when you can't predict tomorrow or next week. I put it off, then ended up with stitches in my hand and had to delay another week and half. I got the stitches out but on the weekend things were too hectic and I got too tired, so was going to deal with the tanks sometime during this week after work. Well, earlier tonight I burned my other hand so severely that I had to go to urgent care and had to take narcotic pain killer - there's no way my had is going in salt water. If after this heals I hurt something again, I'll have to ask someone to come take care of my tanks and then find someone to take the curse off of me.
Jan November 19, 2009 November 19, 2009 Hey Forrest, do you need some help? because when you can't predict tomorrow or next week.

zygote2k November 19, 2009 November 19, 2009 I can help you- I might even be able to take off your curse.
flowerseller November 19, 2009 November 19, 2009 If we weren't going to procrastinate, why would we want a tank? So, how did you cut your hand, what made the weekend so hectic and then how did you burn the other hand?
Kevin Garrison November 19, 2009 November 19, 2009 I can make some phone calls regarding the curse if you like I'd offer to give you a hand with the tanks but Centreville is a long way from you.

treesprite November 19, 2009 Author November 19, 2009 Thank you for the offers! Hopefully I'll be able to get things done by Monday (w/e for me is Sun/Mon), but if I can't I'll have to take someone up on it. Let's see, to answer the injury questions.... both were kind of stupid carelessness. The cut was from a hand slipping when I was trying to chip some hardened glue off of a mini tape recorder's door (don't know how it got there) with a brand new razor blade... I was holding the blade away from me, but a hand slipped or something. The burn is from an electric stove at a client's house - I hate those things because I can't tell when the burners are on. I was putting foil on a cookie sheet that was on top of the stove, put my hand flat on it to smooth out the foil, not realizing that the burner it was over was turned on... it was like putting my hand on the bottom of a frying pan. That counts as a work-related injury, so now I have to file an incident report, but I think they will re-imburse me for the medical treatment.
treesprite November 19, 2009 Author November 19, 2009 For those who dose Prodibio.... Given that I had my water change off schedule, I skipped a dose thinking it would just be postponed a couple days, but now that I can't do the water change for a few more days, should I just go ahead and dose? Doing it before rather than after water change makes me feel like I'm just taking it right back out of the tank.
Mountaineer November 19, 2009 November 19, 2009 I'm not far from Montgomery Village and can help out if needed.
steveoutlaw November 19, 2009 November 19, 2009 Just chant the following: Abulie, Abulie, Abulie, HA! Abulie, Abulie, Abulie, HA! Now, take 3 shots of tequila and stand on your right foot for 15 seconds with your left pinky up your right nostril. Voila.......curse taken care of! Sorry, but I'm too far away to help with the tank.

Sorry, but I'm too far away to help with the tank. LOL. I'm going to start believing I really am cursed soon. Driving in the sudden flash-flood-type rain earlier certainly made me worry about it.
