Whiskey = my healthcare plan

spooky_nineI was trying to walk out of my room the other day when I accidentally slammed my foot down on my belt buckle. The pointy part that goes in the belt holes went through my heel.
I didn't feel it at first, just heard a loud pop. When I realized I was connected to my belt I screamed for Greg. He brought me some paper towels to stop the bleeding and then disappeared into the other room. Apparently the blood almost made him pass out. He's so good in a crisis.
Greg wants me to get a tetanus shot since I haven't had one since I was a tiny child. I don't really think it's necessary, since I doubt my belt buckle is covered in the bacteria that causes it. Plus it's like $190 now that I don't have insurance. I washed it really well and irrigated it was sterile saline, so I think I'll be okay. If not, Greg has instructions to update my LJ to let everyone know.
I can't put any weight on it, but pain pills and whiskey are helping with that.
