why am i writing an ode to a bandage? hain't i got nuttin' better to do?

Working in the yard last weekend, I got a blister right in the palm of my hand. I was wearing gloves, and the blister was popped open already by the time I noticed it. (Jeez, my hand is feeling achy. I better check to make sure I'm not getting a blister... D'oh!)

*But* I had the bright idea to try out these waterproof bandages. They are wonderful. I can wash my hands without the band-aid getting all wet and coming loose! The first one of these that I put on lasted about 10 hours before coming loose. The 2nd one lasted nearly 24 hours before coming loose. If I hadn't been vacuuming and trimming grass, they probably would have lasted even longer.

The bandages themselves are rubbery-feeling, translucent and quite inconspicuous.
