My little finger on my right hand hurts a little bit.

Not much.

Just a bit.

Poor Jack  :-*

Sorry, I was being a bit obscure as this nursery rhyme has many interpretations. I think it was Fyodor who told me that originally Jack broke his "nob"---but this meant "head" at the time. I have no idea why I brought this up. Blame post-holiday madness.
