Another Accident

Filed under:   by Xrlq @ 9:12 am

I had another accident this morning before work. Don’t worry, it was nothing like the the last one. This time, there were no motor vehicles involved, no fractures, concussions or other serious injuries. No, the only injury is an ugly gash on my face.

So what happened, you ask? Well, you know how some really clumsy people manage to cut themselves shaving? That’s not what happened to me. It’s worse (better?) than that.


I cut myself brushing my teeth.

UPDATE: Apparently, I’m not the only one to pull off such a magnificent feat, either. In fact, I’d venture to say Rosemary has done me one better.

    Ha ha ha ha. You have to better explain this one, lest one of us should inadvertantly cut ourselves brushing.

    Wait, wait, I’m convinced this happened to Rosemary Esmay. Yes! Here’s the link:

    How’s that for useless trivia?

    I wonder if bloggers in general are more prone to this growing danger?

    My case wasn’t as bad as Rosemary’s. I was brushing rather aggressively, the toothbrush snapped, and I stabbed myself in the cheek with the broken-off part.

    Ow.

    Before I read that, I was thinking that a ring was the culpret.

    Wow. Just wow.

    My friend sliced off the tip of his finger with a shampoo bottle, but I think you’ve got him beat.

    I think you’ve got everyone beat.

    OW!

    Been there done that and I didn’t even get a T-shirt.
