The bubbling arm.

Oh while I'm here, I thought "I'll finalise with a third story". So here I am, with my third story.

Dedicated to: Joel Wu

This happened to my last Saturday, about 9 days ago.

I was loving How I Met Your Mother and decided to watch it in bed.

So I'm watching how I met your mother on my laptop on my blanket on my lap in bed and enjoying it, as it is How I Met Your Mother.

I wake up at 3am feeing a burning sensation on my arm, I'm disorientated and then I remembered "OHH I was watching HIMYM and now I'm waking up." After realising the situation I was in, I decided to check out why my arm felt hot.

The underside of my left arm facing the laptop was directly next to the heat vent, and my arm was bubbling. You know, like when you grill cheese in the oven and it doesn't BOIL but it sorta bubbles like the bubbles go up and down. Yeah, that was my arm. But not as extreme.

Too tired to care, I simply closed my laptop, placed it next to my bed, turned off my lamp and went back to sleep, without hesitation. I didn't feel the pain as I was asleep. Try it yourself, hold your arm directly next to and completely covering the venting system on your laptop. See how long you last. Now hold it there for 3 hours.

In the morning, my arm was in pain and I was like "What the hell?!" Then I remembered. Ah yes, WHOAAA It was a bubble. On my arm ~ a blister.

Next to it were parallel red lines, from the vent on my laptop. So there you have it, a pustulent bubble on my arm.

Oh, and for the record. The contents of the blister were salty with a tangy edge. Yeahhh, damn right I tasted it.

So Joel, HIMYM does have a downside. ;D
