De-nailed

Finally, after so many weeks, the nail is coming off. I think it was
the last knock at my Boss's desk or the frequent knocks by the
shoe's steel toe-cap in the afternoon which caused me to double
up in pain. When I was putting the girls to bed, the toe felt strange.
My toe looks so dry too, I don't want to use cream in case I slip....

So, the toe nail can open and close like those fighter plane
canopies. But if you look closer, the toe nail is in two parts
and it has nothing to do with the accident. It had been there
all along since I was in my teens

Anyway, the first (big) one came out with a sharp
tug but with the smaller bit, I had to fight to keep
my fear of bleeding again since this nail is really
stuck to the toe. Now its, out, I am not sure if I
just want throw it away or keep it. Maybe hide
it somewhere in one of my models or design....
