[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did you jam a needle all the way into your muscle? Did you do it on purpose?[/quote]

Completely accidental. No, it isn't in my muscle, I don't think? I think I would feel that. It seems to be in the fatty portion of my thigh.

I've certainly stuck myself with errant sewing needles or pins before, here and there over the years, but they never went that far in. This is a pretty small sewing needle and very sharp I guess. I rolled over it; it was on my bedspread because I was sewing while sitting on the bed. I suppose the same thing could have happened if you lost a needle while sitting on the sofa. [/quote]

You said above you don’t sew… are you making this whole thing up?[/quote]

I meant, "Jeesh, I barely sew. Why do I even still have a sewing kit?"

I have a sewing kit and occasionally sew on some buttons, do a little repair.

Long ago I was into embroidery, and did a little more hand sewing, like for a kid costume or something.  It wasn't unheard of to misplace a pin or needle on, say the arm of a stuffed chair or in the cushion, and get stuck by it later. Shit happens. But I never had anything seriously stuck, or had a splinter I was unable to remove.
