I have a scar on my arm from when I was.. maybe ltc 's age.
Mom and Dad were leaving a party and it was raining, someone was hodling me while they went to get the car. The woman slipped on steps and jerked me up and my arm was cut on her earring.
In one version of the story the woman holding me was tipsy.
edit - the woman had metal disc earrings so the cut was pretty bad. Mom still feels guilty about it.
Accidents happen, sj, you're a good mother. I have scars from
actually
negligent parents, it ain't the same thing at all.
Me three. That's so beyond ridiculous.
The part I left out is that I was only gone a couple of hours. And there have been times that I take him out, he doesn't pee, I bring him back in, ten minutes later he pees.
ETA but then today I was gone from 9-5:30 and he didn't have an accident.
My students had a midterm tonight, which means that I was drinking a lot of caffeine in order to stay up to grade it, which means that now I can't sleep.
I have a spectacular bruise on the back of my arm where I slammed into the toy box when I fell yesterday, but I'm not in much more pain than I normally would be on a rainy day.
Glad it wasn't worse, sj. Bubble-wrap~ma!
I'm hurting a lot, which is pretty typical for the day after an exam. I really hate exam days. I'd (stupidly) been planning to go into the office today, but I'm going to be working from home, because I really need to rest my ankle.
