i was cooking a delicious soy burger tonight and used a metal fork to flip it and such. i let the fork rest on the hot pan and stove while it cooked on each side. after it cooked, i immediately put it on a plate and used the same fork that i cooked with and brought it to my mouth. it sort of shocked me, and then my lips began to feel weird. when i looked in the mirror i saw that i had burned a layer of skin off the inner side of my bottom lip. :(
after about 20 minutes my lips started swelling and this is the result:


you can't really tell, but my bottom lip swelled up pretty big. it swelled so much it made my lip piercing strangle.. well my lip.


and w/o the piercings. the right side of my bottom swelled up more than the left side.
so the moral of the story is that i'm an idiot. oh, and it's 5am and i haven't been to bed yet.
