Broken.

[featherynscale]

Tripped over some uneven concrete picking up lunch for the office today. Fell, hit a door with my forehead, tore up my knee, and cut open my scalp on the door handle. Yeah. I'm gonna be the prettiest trauma victim at the personal injury ball.

Anyway.

Bonus points for me because when the paramedics came, they couldn't see the cut, because the blood was the same color as my hair.

OMG, how horrible. *big hugs* Um, OK, probably *Gentle hugs* would be more appropriate under the circumstances.

I can always send Widdle Racer The Pooh to give you puppy kissies.

Get better soon. (I'd send you gracefulness energies, but I'm not exactly Nureyev, either ...)

Thank you dahling. Actually, hugs are okay. :)
I will discourage people from grabbing my knee, or poking at my head for a bit, but other than that, I still seem to be functional.

so that's the color of your hair, blood red. kewlness!!
all kidding aside, i hope you are ok.

[featherynscale.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's pretty sexy.
Except now it's gonna clash with the big friggin bruise on my forehead.

*sigh* my beautiful china doll skin...
*snort* Whatever.

Oh no! Ouch. You have my sympathies. Damn Rat Bastards paramedics. They never looked closely at mine, either. Did you have to go to the hospital/get stitches/staples?

Love and Hugs and healing energy your way. :)

Thanks! No, I didn't go to the hospital. I didn't have any vision problems or dizziness, and my head had mostly stopped bleeding by the time the paramedics got there, so I didn't go. They made me sign a release form that said that they offered to take me and I didn't want to go, though. CYA in action.

uh-huh. It seems that's all they care about, CYA. big, long gash in the scalp? no worries, as long as we got a signature.

*Hugs* Hope you heal quickly and feel better.

I emailed a quick note about it to L.,C. and S, so they know. :)

Ye gods! That's...dramatic. Hope you've got some Ibuprofen or something. I do find the thing about your hair mildly funny, however... if you'd kept the orange-red, you'd look even MORE like the IRA Poster Girl now.

starwyse is gonna think we beat you like a red-headed...err, yeah.

See you tonight, love.

Nuh-uh, do not.

You, btw, are a delicious bundle of person :)

Yeah, I was pleased about the hair thing, actually, because I was in the foyer of the restaraunt bleeding all over the place, and people kept coming in and staring at me. And I know I looked pretty bad, because there was blood all over my clothes, but I had cleaned up the blood on my face, and I was thinking "at least they can't see it in my hair, so I'm not as alarming as I might be".

Also, I fortunately restocked the painkillers yesterday. :)

Scalp wounds at the hairline are the best! They bleed all out of proportion to the actual damage. I highly recommend them to any wishing to freak people out. Knee stuff sucks though. Sigh...guess you have to take the bad with the good. Make sure you get some TLC just the way you want it.

What a dramatic way to end your work day! If you could perfect the bits where it hurts afterwards, you'd really be on to something, I think. Hope you feel better soon.

Poor thing. :(

Heal quickly, you.

Sorry, Honey

Work comp?

If you suffered injuries while performing work duties, aren't you eligible for work comp?
