Title: Thank goodness the Summer's over.
Post by: Sikboy on August 29, 2007, 05:33:15 PM
As the final cap to Sikboy's "Summer of Stupid"...

I was in charge of my Churches Summer Picnic. Wrangling all of the different factions to ensure that everyone was going to be happy and nobody was going to be left out was like juggling cats. But in the end, everything seemed to be working out.

The one thing that was bugging the leadership though, was that I hadn't delegated everything out. I was still taking it upon myself to run the Kitchen. Everything else was taken care of, except the kitchen.

So it was around 9:00 or so and I was putting some carts away. These were large carts that carry the big flat tables we were using. I was talking to one of my helpers about how we were going to re-arrange the tables and not paying as much attention to what I was doing as I should have been. In a move of outstanding idiocy, I managed to get my ankle caught between two fo the carts. I went down, got back up, and continued my conversation. After a minute or two, I noticed that my ankle and foot were now covered in blood. I said: Hang on, I have to go get a paper towel.

Once I got to the head, I brought my foot up to sink level to wipe the blood off. My buddy Glenn was standing at the sink next to mine. He looked over and said: Whoah, you're going to the hospital man. I looked down and, no ****, I had sliced right through the skin. Glenn, a former EMT, saw bone but I didn't.

Needless to say, I didn't manage to run the kitchen. Instead I lay on the hallway floor delegating out responsibilities while an on-scene Dr wrapped me up and transportation was arraged to get me stitched up.

On Monday we started classes and again and I'm going to just classify this as a bad summer, and not the start of a very bad life lol.
