I would be working right now but . . . i broke my favorite earrings last night. i got up, set up my computer all ready to work. i was making coffee and had this excellent time-saving idea: indstead of wasting all this time waiting for the water to boil,fix your earrings. it was such an easy fix: just a tiny dab of glue, fit the post back into the whole....DONE.

I WAS WATCHING THE GLUE FLOW TOWARD THE APPLICATOR TIP....next thing i knew, it gushed out onto my fingers holding the post. i saw it happening. AFRAID THE GLUE WOULD GET ALL OVER EVERYTHING, I CAPPED IT FIRST....

HUGE MISTAKE!!!!!

now 2 fingers are stuck to the earring and two others are stuck together.

Directions on back of the bottle read: "soak in acetone nail polish remover then roll skin apart..." I AM SOAKING...

IF I EVER BEFORE DOUBTED THE POWER OF kyazy glue...

i am soaking, gritting my teeth against the pain as i try to pull/roll my fingers apart and typing this.

Palm skyward ala SCARLET O: With you as my witness, if i ever get free, i will never procrastinate or use KRAZY GLUE again!!!
