Fri, May 16, 2008 at 1:12am Originally uploaded by McLeod Residence Photobooth My old co-worker Mick from Robern, who is also no longer with Robern and living in Baltimore is out here for business.

Last thursday morning i was shaving my legs while lathering my leg with foam and when i pulled the razor away, i knicked my other hand! Blood was shooting out everywhere, especially from my index finger. My shower looked like the scene from phycho. It was a lot of blood, coming fast and the water made it burn!!! I stood in the shower with my one hand holding the other thinking "now what?" I got out of the shower to grab bandaids from the cabinet and I was fine until i looked in the mirror. I was trying to put a bandage on each fi
