It's around 8:30am. The counter top at work has a cooler attached to it. I bend down and say excuse me to the lady that's in my way. I open the cooler and reach in and then I feel something hit me and cut me. The knife that was on the counter had fallen.

Not sure if it was knocked down or what, but all I knew was that I had been cut on my left pinky right on the knuckle. I rush to security to get it checked out.

It doesn't bleed until a few minutes later. And then the bruise-like pain starts, especially when I try to bend the finger.

Now I'm at work with one and half hands, not fun. Especially since the day started out pretty bad.

I asked my father-in-law to pick me up from work. He told me that I should go to the clinic to be on the same side.

So I did.

They gave me a tetanus shot just in case and took x-rays. It's not fractured, but it is badly bruised. They placed the pinky in a splint so I wouldn't bend it.

Yep. The cut isn't that bad and I think it's closing already. But it's bruised all around the pinky. The pain has started to die down.

Aww, I hope it gets better. Cuts are no fun.

I've cut my finger slightly several times when preparing food for myself. Once it happened like twice within a week. Ugh.

Clumsy me.

Sometimes there seems to be a time when one just racks up injuries... this seems to be one of those times.

My mother dropped a knife once. It stuck right into the wooden floor about 2 inches from her foot. o.o

My mother threw a knife once.

Here's my finger.

My finger. Can't see much, so there's a cat in the background... on Twitpic

I'm gonna take the splint off later today.

It was really hard to get a picture of this. Not sure if the bruises are visible.

I can't quite see the bruises, but it's reminiscent of the many times my Mom has cut her fingers while cutting stuff up for cooking.

Being in a renfaire means being anally safe around metal objects for me. Weapons and wielding are an everyday part of life.

Went back to the clinic and they said that it's healing nicely and that I don't need the splint.

Right now it's very stiff and I still can't bend it all the way. Still feels bruised and hurts.

Well, at least it's healing well. Cuts like that are really annoying :/
