How did your leg get gouged, WWWP?

There was, unbeknownst to me, a broken pint glass in the trash bag I was carrying, and as I was walking to the bins the bag caught enough momentum to swing and impact my leg. It was a clean cut, the wound is about 3” long and 1-1.5” deep

The exact same thing happened to my friend. She was bleeding out while watching the Bears (diehard fan) and I had to drag her to the ER.

Oof, it's so visceral! All that color!

Looks like it was a nice clean wound though so it should heal without complication. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

I hope you're not somewhere that is suffering from a heat wave. Not being able to swim due to the stitches, that would suck.

Please, do give your friend my sympathies. If that happened to her again...I guess you'd call that a double-doink.

But seriously, glad she's okay.

I'd offer up my cheese heads. Something tells me that wouldn't help.

In the Bears' defense, Aaron Rodgers chokes in the postseason more than they do.

That is correct. I think he could have helped the team more by becoming the Jeopardy host full time. He takes up way too much of the salary cap.

We have family in Wisconsin. By default, we're cheesy. Ironically, I hate cheese. Can't stand the stuff.

Hey, you! Haven't you got more important things to be doing? j/k

Thanks for the update L, although I wish you were more comfortable at this point instead of being squeezed by someone else's possessions. Glad you made it through the process of moving everything across town, which I can imagine was totally exhausting. Judging by the time difference, you're probably fast asleep now between boxes lol.

That tennis game with your son sounds like fun, but hard work! My guess is that you were secretely pleased that it was your son who won.

Yes, I was definitely glad he won (and I think our workout really lifted his spirits). At the end of two sets I was worn out with my sneakers and socks covered in clay.
