My prediction? Pain...


Last week, I got a big cut on my hand that required two Disney band-aids. How did I cut myself? Turning off the lights. Yes, I managed to hurt myself on a light switch. While I was trying to stop the bleeding, I started thinking about other ways in which I injured myself over the years. Ways that most people would consider...unnatural.

- When I was in second grade I saw my teacher accidentally staple her finger. I wondered if it hurt. So I put my finger under the stapler and slammed down hard on it. Too hard. It was difficult pulling the staple out of my pointer finger. Final analysis: Pain

- As a stupid 6 year old wandering around in the woods, I wondered if it would hurt to head-butt a rock. Since it was a big rock, I figured only a little head-butt would be needed. Well, I rocked my brain up against the inside of my skull pretty good. The rock felt no pain. I was not so lucky.

- Tried to run around a bookcase, but accidentally went through it. Head injury.

- Fed a pig a carrot. Forgot to put carrot in my hand. Pig thought my fingers were carrots. They crunched just like carrots in his mouth.

- My uncle had an electric fence. I thought if I put a balloon on my finger, I would be shock proof. After 7 attempts, I decided instead of trying to be shock proof, I would absorb all the electricity in the fence to get super electric powers!!! After 15 more attempts, my right arm went numb and hung useless at my side for the rest of the day.

Time to go change my bandages...

After Church ended us kids would play tag in the outside shelter, the only two rules being that you had to stay on the picnic tables, and that if you fell off onto the gravel you were it.

During one daring escape I slipped off and fell face-first right into the gravel...I remember picking my head up to see a large, ketchup-like stain on the rocks. I reached up and sure enough, there were rocks sticking out of the brand new gashes in my forehead.

Prediction: PAINx2
