Accident Prone

I swear, I am going to need a tetnis shot. If I put a bulletin on tomorrow morning that says "LOCK JAW" then I will probably be on my way to the hospital.

I scraped my arm tonight on the cardboard compactor and that sucker is rusty, I also smashed my fingers under stock a couple of times and I also broke a nail in the center (and my nails are fairly short) because I was opening a box and the cardboard slipped from my finger to my nail and it pulled my nail backward.

Let me express that these were all minor points to the night. My major one, and this happened first (well, after twisting my ankle in the parking lot) I was pulling a pallet jack with freight packed about 9 feet high, Brackley was pushing (which I really didnt need) and I was pulling and the momentum meant that when I stopped to open the doors behind me, it didnt and it rolled up onto my foot. there was a metal piece in the wheel that dug into my shoe and spliced the skin between my middle toe and the one next to my littlest toe on my right foot. The weight of the pallet was more than that of a full grown horse. So after rolling it onto my foot, Brackley (thank God he was there) helped me roll it off of my foot, which you could feel it gringing off the bone. My foot is now red, black, and blue, mixed with bare white. I really value my feel, a reflexologist once told me I had magnificently beautiful feet. Damn it! This is like a victoria secret model getting a black eye. Grrrr. It doesnt really hurt, in fact it feels better when I walk on it, even though I now have a slight limp. My manager gave me some bandages, but he wouldnt look at the deep cut between my toes cause he said he is very squeamish.

Well I got off work at 5am, its now 5:50. THe best part of the night is a cross between finding out Wes wasnt working tonight (to which without him, we actually finished 30 minutes early and I did twice the work I usually do, I hate that motherfucker).

I also got my first and second paycheck. Apparently the direct deposit hasnt kicked in yet.

Oh well. Oh wait. Did you guys know there actually is a product now called "Scooby Snacks", That totally ruins my saying "Would ya do it for a scooby snack?" to my friends since now it really is a fuckin dog biscuit. Grrrrrrrrr.
