Shock and Ow

Sparky is back.

I had been enjoying a relatively pain-free winter, with minimal electrical damage to my fingertips. But today the static electricity is coming in full force. I don't know if it just drier than usual (it's damn cold, but that's not new). Maybe it's the Prague pants and Old Navy fleece combo that makes me "pop". (It's audible!)

I have learned in years past to "discharge" using different parts of my body, like my arm or butt. Now I am just discharging randomly when I brush by things. Fortunately, no people have been injured. And I haven't managed to short out any electrical devices just yet. (Ask Cheese Fiend about our first phone...)
