She Punctured My Thumb

My friend Joel has a cat named Fita that hasn't been feeling well lately. I went over to his house last week and we had to force-feed her with a plastic syringe full of cat food. I've never seen this action before! So I forced the food into her mouth while Fita whipped around. She bit down on the syringe and we heard a crack. Joel was concerned the cat would swallow the plastic, so he reached his thumb down into her mouth to catch it. At that moment Fita bit down. HARD. Joel yanked his thumb out of her mouth and washed it in the sink. He showed it to me a minute later, and she pierced the skin, and left an imprint in his nail!
Fita wandered around the house and was upset. Joel was too, he was only trying to help her.

Later that night, Joel was playing some songs on his keyboard. He learned to play "Under My Thumb." I suggested "She bit my thumb." Joel laughed, and wrote a quick song, rewriting the hook to be: "She Punctured My Thumb." It went something like this:

(sung to the tune of "Under My Thumb" by the Rolling Stones)
"She punctured my thumb...
She wouldn't eat,
I thought she was weak,
But she punctured my thumb."

Good stuff.

By the way, this is a cliff's notes version of what happened that day. I had a longer, more detailed and subsequently more entertaining post, but it was eaten by the gods of blogspot. I will never spell check BEFORE saving a post!
