and it hurts like all fuck

I was soldering a copper pipe and put the torch down, it fell over and knocked the pipe into my hand. I can't even remember how that happened since the pipe was in a vise. I think I was taking the pipe out of the vise, the next thing I knew I had caught the hot end of the pipe between my thumb and pointer finger, the torch was on the floor of the shop melting a plastic bucket, setting the sawdust on fire and burning up a few paper towels.

an hour of cold compress hasn't made a difference. I think I'll walk to the drug store and see if they have that Spenco shit.

Ouch.

Not to mention the waxy, greasy, acid flux was heat sealed into my skin.
