There we were, cranking out spankings and fresh baked cookies for our guests at unSCruz when it happened.
I tripped on some electrical wires and tumbled straight into one of my plastic totes FACE FIRST.
I quickly looked around.
No one saw me.
Good!
That would’ve been embarrassing!
I started rooting around in my bin looking for LED necklaces to gift.
All of a sudden, something wet started dripping off the tip of my nose.
I wiped it away with my hand.
But the dripping continued.
I looked at my hand.
In the dark, I couldn’t make out the color of what was on my hand but I suspected it was blood.
I called out to Tejas, “Tejas, am I bleeding?”
He looked over at me.
Yes! You are!
It was Saturday night and I had been planning to really KILL IT that night and party hard.
Because I was really tired on Friday night, I went to bed early thinking Saturday night would be my night.
But that was not to be.
Instead, I was given paper towels and ice and I sat down and cradled my head.
A nurse appeared as if like magic and she assessed me.
No concussion.
Never passed out.
But all I wanted to do was go to bed.
So I did.
And Tejas and another dear friend kept and eye on me until roughly midnight when I woke up and decided it was time to go out.
But if you can believe it, I managed to do a face plant and split the bridge of my nose open at unSCruz.
It ain’t pretty. . .
OuCH!!!!! The things you don’t plan for……. So cool there was a nurse on hand!
