I know, I know...I'm slacking on my assignment. But hey, this is a pretty accurate reflection of my life lately. Me thinks me doth procrastinate too much. I have good reason though! It seems that lately, every time I try to do something, it ends up in a frustrating test of my patience! A classic example is the project that I turned in today.
We had to make a genogram (similar to a family tree) of our family's culture. It involved a ton of information that we had to represent with different symbols clustered around each individual's name. Because I waited too late to begin my project and did not want to spend much money, I used some really old stickers from my trusty stationery set circa 1994 to represent different cultural factors within my family. Did I use super professional, graduate school worthy elements such as ladybugs and angels and hearts? Yep! The only problem - besides it looking like a kindergarten project - was that the angels kept falling off the poster. So I decided to laminate it. Which was a good idea. And worked well. Or so I thought. Apparently, one of the angels decided to jump ship right before entering the laminator, and a dog hair decided to hop on board. So now I had permanently affixed a canine product to my already very unprofessional project, and I still had to go back and superglue a stubborn angel back in place. Which reminds me...does anyone know how long it takes for superglue to wear off of your skin?
Hopefully you've gotten the super glue off by now, but for future reference, pouring copious amounts of fingernail polish over the affected area should allow you to unglue yourself.
ReplyDeleteI had to learn this the hard way when I accidentally super glued one hand to a shoe I was repairing and the other hand to the tube of glue...I was very thankful that my father-in-law was around and knew what to do, else I'd probably still be glued...
