The good news is that I've finally finished the remaining nutsacks. Those of you who've been waiting patiently for yours should have them soon (Evan, Mr. Chinchilla). Thanks for being patient (the quiet four-day weekend had a lot to do with my finishing them).

And then I teabagged my monitor, because I can.

(Jackie: You'll want to stop reading here.)
The bad news is that I somehow managed to take stupid self-inflicted injuries to a whole new level. One of the extra-thick, super-strong craft needles I was using to sew the nutsacks must've fallen into the carpet when I wasn't paying attention. Later, walking through my bedroom, I managed to step on it at just the right angle so that it went straight through my slipper and into my foot, effectively nailing my slipper onto my foot, sorta.

1 3/4 inches of pain.
After a lot of hopping around on one foot and cursing, I got the slipper/needle combo off my foot, and then I got the bleeding stopped, and everything's cool now. I think.
On the other hand, I guess now you two are now the only people in the world to own Conflict Nutsacks. Unlike most other conflict items, however, there are no profits; therefore, you aren't funding any more violence and can enjoy them with a clean conscience. Those needles... they're just vicious.
No, if this happens again, it'll be fueled solely by my own massive stupidity and nothing else.
Ouch.

Is my nutsack actually larger than the other one, or is that just the (top) photo?
It doesn't matter to me (I'm not one of those guys); I'm just wondering.
It is, just slightly, because I don't have a pattern and just cut them out freehand.
Although, I'll be the first to tell you that size doesn't matter.
Ouch! Sorry about your injury.... Here's wishing you a rockin' Happy New Year!
Hope your tetanus shots are up to date! Anyone who can successfully work "teabagging" into a blog post can't get all sick and die on me.
Happy new year, Jenny.
Yeah, that "teabag/monitor" thing was awesome!!! I'm still laughing through my vomit thanks to the the pierced foot story... :)
Happy New Year, kids!
Don't worry, I'm good on my tetanus shots. I'll be making lame teabagging jokes for many New Years' to come. ;)
Blood Nutsacks! (Where's Leonardo DiCaprio?)
I'm happy that no Jennies were harmed in the manufacturing of my Nutsack, almost as glad as I am to hear that size really doesn't matter. That means a lot (wipes tears).
Owwwwwwwwwwwwuh!!!!
I'm glad you're OK, though. Sheesh!
That's right! I'm sure he'd love to be cast in a movie about Blood Nutsacks... who wouldn't? I'll get my people to talk to his people.
It really doesn't (well, there is *one* exception to that rule, but otherwise... nope). That's a whole 'nother post for another time, though.
Thanks, Rebecca! I've made a full recovery. :D
