Well, I had quite the stupid accident this weekend... in fact it was Friday night. This is the story...
George and I went to Ankeny Vineyard after work. It was relaxing and we had pizza cooked in the outdoor fire pit roaster thing, and a bottle of Pino. When it came time to leave we cruised on home, like normal and plopped our butts on the couch. After a couple hours of more wine and YouTube videos of 90's R&B jams that brought us way back... I got kinda cold and went upstairs to get a sweatshirt...
In the mean time I had set my balloon style wine glass next to the couch, and out of the way of walk through traffic. The glass was empty and was placed there for a while, and I failed to pay attention to it. As I came back downstairs with great momentum, I stepped down into our sunken living room, and straight on top of the empty wine glass crushing it with my left, bare foot.
OUCH!!
I freaked out and there were 2 shards of sharp glass stuck straight our of my foot, one of the pieces being in quite deep and about 3" long. Dear heavens it looked horrible, blood splattered onto the carpet and glass was everywhere! Huge mess! George took the glass out of my foot and i hurried to bandage it up. Thankfully the clean up didn't take too long and Babs stayed away from broken glass.
The next morning I was in excruciating pain and went to Urgent Care. The doctor bandaged my foot up tightly and said I didn't need a tetnis shot. He considered irrigating my foot out, and I talked him out of it :) Saying I was fairly certain there was no glass remaining in my foot and so far it hasn't gotten worse. It is just very sore and I have to baby it a little.
What an idiot! Wearing tennis shoes with professional dress to work makes me feel like a real winner...
Note to self: Get a new coffee table quick!
