I had a little accident a few weeks back and now finally healed...
I also have a hard time posting pictures of myself so this took me awhile to do.
So... I went running, and while doing windsprints I totally underestimated the power of a uneven sidewalk. Then dove chin first into the concrete. Sweet.
Me: (lying down next to the bed, whimpering after walking 2 blocks home holding my chin while trying not to pass out) "Uh, I fell down... I hurt my chin"
W: "Really? Let me see..." leaning down from the bed and facing his iphone light to me(its 6 am in the morning and still dark). "Yeah I think we have to get you to the hospital"
Me: "Really? Its just my chin, it'll heal. Its just bleeding a lot."
W: Leaning down again to look with his light. "Okay, kids get up. Mommy has to go to the hospital"
Me: :blink: "huh?"
So I decided to be brave and go take a look in the mirror (no, I had not done that yet, I was too chicken) And as I raised the soaked napkin up and tilted my head back to take a glance, blood came shooting out at the mirror. Kill Bill style. I cover it back up and decide never to do that again. It took seven (blue?)stitches and much whining to put me back together again.
W took graphic pictures of it. I still refuse to look, I'm that weak. The resulting pictures I'm told, and was told many times is, that it looks like a pair of lips stuck to my chin. I will not be posting those.
Dude.
Dude! Owie!! I can't believe you decided to post this, BTW. You're a rock star!
