Summarize

Do you often feel like you’re in a hurry to get nowhere?

Listen, I know from experience that rushing, without reason, can be a health hazard.

Frequently, I’ve hit my head on a cabinet, or the trunk of my car, or banged a hip because I’m a fucking speed demon with no destination.

Last night, I was yanking a fresh razer out of its package so I could jump in the shower and shave my legs.

All six blades sliced into my thumb, causing it to bleed for over an hour. Bright red droplets landed everywhere as I frantically tried to stem the flow.

Tip: If you’re staunching a cut, don’t remove the bloodied tissue, or cotton because that also removes the clot that’s forming. Just keep layering that crap on and apply pressure.

I could probably use a stitch. But I have more than a few, here.
