One of the Worst Feelings

This doesn't happen often but I broke a candle today as I was trying to find something on my cluttered desk.  This is actually the second time this has happened, but this time when the glass broke it went everywhere.  

My sneakers were next to the point of impact and since it's raining today I decided to wear those sneakers into work.  I thought I had cleaned everything up, all the little pieces of glass are hard to see, but then as I was getting ready I stepped on one that ended up on my slipper!  I hate the feeling of having broken glass cut you, and it's one of those pieces that are smaller than a splinter.  I was able to take it out with relative ease, but it was on the bottom of my foot, so now it's the most annoying thing ever!  With every step I take, I can feel the pain, even though on a scale of 1 to 10 it's only a 1, it's that annoying feeling of the pain with every step.  

I thought that was the end of it until I felt something poking my foot while on the subway.  After a few pokes and some pain, I realized that was some more glass that had made it's way into my sneaker which I missed.  I couldn't take off my sneaker and socks on the train so I toughed it out until I got to the office.

When I finally got to take a look, there was actually a lot of those little pieces of glass in my sneaker!  Damn this is hard to clean up, it's like cleaning out sand in your shoes when you go to the beach.  So now I'm here at work with about 3 or 4 cuts from the glass on my right foot ... gotta love it.  

Good way to start the day!
