Ouch.
Funny story.
There I was, stepping out for a cigarette today when I slipped in the dark (my family was watching a movie) and my foot landed on my mom's purse lying by the door. When I pulled up my foot my mom's purse was stuck to it. So, I started shaking around trying to get it off me, wondering why it hurt. I eventually had to pull it off, and when I kept heading for the door I felt something wet on my foot. When I turned on the lights there was a pretty big pool of blood. Apparently, my mom's car key had poked up through her purse, through my flip-flop, and UP INTO MY FOOT. Far enough up to pin my mom's heavy purse to my foot while I flailed. Which was probably a funny sight, looking back on it. Especially when the kittens started playing with the blood and I was hopping around on one leg trying to shoo them off.
I think I played it off ok, though. I just stood there going "Um. Um.......wow, that hurts.....um," while my family was running around trying to find some towels and bandages.
LOL, I guess it just makes up for the $50 I found on the ground yesterday.
The worst part is that this would be good for several days off work, and of course it had to happen right before my two days off. RATS.
