lead in my head

I just learned that Bobbi Brown the makeup artist is not the same as Bobby Brown aka. Whitney and Bobby Brown. I always thought that he released his own makeup line. Gee…you learn something everyday!
I also accidentally stabbed myself with a mechanical pencil the other day. Getting a little too passionate over a game of Kakuro. There is now a piece of lead embedded in my hand. I tried to dig it out but that only led to a more painful injury. This may be a dumb question but…could I get lead poisoning? Will it eventually work its way out or should I continue my handiwork (haha…get it?) with the tweezers and scissors?
It might be getting to my head. Get this - last night I had a dream that I was in Chapters and I found a pop-up-book edition of the Necronomicon. It was really elaborate…and dark. Jemma was there and I was like, “sweet, Jemma, look at what I just found!” and she responded, “oh yeah, don’t you remember…I should you that last time we were here”, and I was like “oh yeah” and I put it back on the shelf. Why did I not keep looking? Good reason to do some lucid dreaming training.

i don’t think you can get lead poisoning, but i’d get that out of your system asap…

pick at the skin using a sterilized needle/pin (dip in alcohol)…

it is days like this when you must be happy that I am on another continent.

imagine if I was in the lab…you would have to see it.

I will maybe try the needle thing later. right now it is sensitive from all my picking this morning.

I may be wrong, but I don’t think pencils are actually made with real lead anymore. Likely due to the whole lead poisoning thing.

You are quite right Kim. So…can you get graphite poisoning? Just kidding.

I think it is slowly working its way out so I should be safe :P
