I Now Remember Why I Hate Soup
13 years ago
General
You ever drop an unopened can of soup on your foot? You ever drop an unopened can of soup on your foot without shoes or socks? Did it ever ONLY hit the last two toes? Yeah.... my life as of last night. Boo. This is some crap
Literally, all I wanted was some cereal. That's all I wanted. But no. I go to the cabinet and there's soup cans sitting on the counter and in my sleepy (I'm also sick btw) stupor, I knock one of the cans off of the counter. Now, all is fine and good for a moment because my body is a little slow when it comes to registering some forms of pain, so it took a few seconds to realize that the UNOPENED AND VERY FULL can of soup had actually hit my foot and not just the ground. More over, it hit my pinky toe and the toe just to the left of that on my right foot. When the pain actually hits me I don't even have words, I just make incoherent noises of anger and pain and grip the counter top.
Long story short (too late) I get my cereal and come into the living room to join my girlfriend who is watching The Avengers for the umteenth time and working on stats sheets for an Avengers RP we and some friends are gonna do, and find out that my pinky toe is bleeding and both toes are swollen and bruising.
*facepalm*
As of this morning, my toes are sore but I can walk more or less. I'm lucky I have two days off in a row here, otherwise I might be in trouble. I consider myself to be VERY lucky too, because neither toe is broken. I can bend them on my own without much struggle. It just hurts a tiny bit, nothing serious. I would have been screwed though had they broken. I have no doctor and no health insurance, so..... That would have been pretty fucking shitty indeed...

..... I'm an idiot. D:
And a klutz.
No, I didn't. Maybe I should have but it's kinda late now. The toes aren't swollen anymore, just sore and stiff when I bend them. I'll live. If they really are broken, this will be one of those instances a doctor comes upon years later and says 'Ma'am, were you aware that you broke your toes previously?"
