Burned!
by Dax Montana on Mar.05, 2009, under General
Ouch! Motherfucker! god damn it! Cocksucker! Fuck! At least I think that was the order of words I shouted after I grabbed the falling 500 degree iron skillet loaded with marinated London broil. Along with searing beef, the smell of searing Dax-flesh filled the kitchen/cooking arena.
I saved my dinner. Unfortunately the hand took a branding like I have never felt before. Oh I have burned myself a plenty over the years…sucks. I quickly submerged my charred hand into cold running water washing away the little flakes of charred/blistered little pieces of flesh. I got the remaining skin cooled enough for me to reach the ice dispenser with minimal pain. The ice bought me more relief until I could search the nearby medicine cabinet. The burn cream with lidocaine was close at hand.
Did I tell you that was a stupid thing for me to do? Damned cat-like reflexes!
Just Damn!

Always remember…fast reflexes can sometimes get you fucked. Getting ice on it asap was a VERY smart move…I’ve had some bad burns in my day, and the quicker you can get ice on it, the better.
I was with some buddies camping in the Yukon…in the middle of fucking nowhere…buddy number 3 grabbed a rock we were using to circle the fire. Bad move…we had no ice…no cold water…he was in some MAJOR pain…thought we might have to shoot him.
Luckily, I had a tube of some type of burn ointment in my pack…but, he was really hurting bad.
One thing about bad burns…they are really susceptible to infection. Stay on top of it.
Still hurt?

First thing I thought of when I read this was Og’s story about accidentally burning his nutsack with the hot coal of a cigarette when he was disposing of a butt whilst at stool.
Or was that you?
