OUCH!!

I got a boo boo the other day...a pretty good one too. I was making dinner and was cleaning up the dishes and stuff that I used and I got to the knives. Well, Rich as this knife that he just sharpened and I was all finished washing it and I was drying it like I always do; blade away from self, between the thumb and fingers and a towel around the knife so that I could dry it. Well, my fingers were farther up than I thought they were and the knife was amazingly sharp and just cut right through the towel and into my middle finger. Luckily, since I was holding it that way, it cut along my finger and not in to my finger. It still hurt pretty bad and of course it was just bleeding like crazy. I was really bummed though because I had to eat with my left hand (I'm right handed) and it was much more difficult that I thought.
It has healed up quite a bit since yesterday but now it feels all bruised (and looks a little bruised too) and I can't bend it very well since it was on the inside of the joint. I think it will get better soon though...I hope. I just don't remember ever getting cut with knives before. I've gotten cuts from other things like xacto knives and stuff like that, but not kitchen knives. I don't know how it happened.

My boo boo :(
