Stupidity and Stitches

Today has been a weird day! It all really started last night. I didn't get home until 10pm because I had the YW training sessions down at the Tabernacle. (Little side note, the benches in that place are HORRIBLE, if you go there bring a butt cushion, or your butt will go numb.) Anyway, when I got home I ate a quick dinner and then talked with Taylor for a while, so we didn't get to bad until almost midnight. With a 5:30am alarm, midnight is very late :( So I was very tired this morning but I was getting better as the morning went on. I got to work at about 6:40 and was on a roll! I was getting everything done quickly and was accomplishing a lot. Until I forgot 1 VERY important thing.... don't walk down the halls without putting your arms behind your back! You see, I have a very serious issue about hitting my arms on walls, beds, doors, etc. So I always walk down the halls with my hands behind my back, protecting my arms from injury. Well, today I forgot and my arm was the recipient of the damage. I moved over in the hallway to let someone with a bed pass and I hit my wrist on the metal plating of OR 3 door frame. Of course for me, it had to do more damage then it would to most less accident prone people. The metal sliced my wrist. I didn't look to bad but I was worried about the possibility of infection. So I showed a nurse and she said I had to go to employee health because it was a work accident. They then made me leave work, and go to intermoutain med. I work at a hospital, there are people that can give me antibiotics and Plastic surgeons to stitch it! Oh no, that is not possible you HAVE to go to the med clinic, lame. So I left work and drove to the clinic. After 2 1/2 hours I had 3 stitches and a band aid! What a waste of time. The only great thing was I got the rest of the day off :) I was pretty happy about that. So that is my stupidity of letting my very accident prone self slice my wrist and get 3 stitches from a door frame.
