I was playing tag today with my son in one of those skateboard parks with the rounded walls while I we were waiting for my wife to meet up with us ...
... in the rain
... and there was nobody there to say to me, "Mr. Turner, I know you're not going to understand this... but those walls get *slippery* when it rains."...
... and sure enough. I slipped and fell, but because of the shape of the wall, the first thing that hit the ground was my head.
... I got it split open along the right eyebrow for about 2,5-3cm . Obviously all the blood freaked the bejezus out of my kid but fortunately for me there was a sporting event happening (that's why we were there) and there was a first-aid post nearby.
... got it patched up at the first-aid and then headed to the emergency to get it stitched. As it turned out they didn't stitch it but they "glued" it, for lack of a better term, back together.
... but this stuff can't get wet so I'm now dry until it falls off. Probably at week to 10 days....
Bugger.
