I quit my 2nd job, went to get a few drinks...slipped in the bathroom and cracked my forehead open. Blacked out and woke up to a bloody face and have no idea how I got home.

Awesome!

I leave for Mexico on Monday. Maybe I'll get kidnapped by the drug lords and either be held for ransom or as a sex slave!

OMG!!! Are you ok? Did you need stiches, or was it just one of those head wounds that bled real bad?

Shit Carrie hope you are ok....c'mon....lets see a pic of the war wound

hope your wound wasn't too bad

Just a few drinks eh? lol

YIKES!

That's awful!

I've woken up with mystery bruises before, but never a full-blown wound.

Hope you're OK.

Oi!

I hope you plan on seeing a doctor before you go to Mexico. You suffered a concussion of sorts.

My face literally stopped my fall. The floor was wet and I slipped and I woke up saying 'uh oh, this is not good'. I called my friend to come in the bathroom and she freaked out, the whole floor was covered in blood.

I think I need a few stitches but fuck it. It'll be a cool war wound.

What a fucking night. After 3 years of sticking it out at that shit hole bar they decide that I don't deserve to work my shift because I don't spend enough time there. Um.....whaaat?? And they tell me this half way into the night when I'm busting my ass. So I said fuck you, I quit! They could have called before I came in...don't insult me and tell me half way into my shift.

Everything happens for a reason. Summer is here and there will be cool outdoor bartending gigs.

Oi.

That is the best when you wakeup in a pool of blood and think WTF???

GO,SEE.A.DOCTOR



But besides that, good to read you had a great time

CarrieLee said:

God! I hope you're ok. And yes, you better go to the doctor.

CarrieLee said:

I should go to the doctor but I hate hospitals and theres nothing I can do.

CarrieLee said:

Fuck off with excuses, just go!

Carrie, you really need to go see a doctor, hon. You may have a concussion. I hope you're ok - and fuck that bar, you're on your way to the career you've been meant to have.

I meant nothing THEY can do. I hit my head and it hurts. Whatevs.

applekisses said:

It was going to happen sooner or later but I wish I left on my own terms and not forced. I put a lot of time and effort into that place and when we got new owners they just shit all over us. I really loved some of the people I worked with there but I will never step foot in that shit hole again.

don't let the stitches thing keep you from going to get your head checked out
this happened last night so i don't think they would stitch you now. it's too late.

BUT you could have icky bathroom floor crap in there.
it needs to be looked at. and the whole loss of consciousness thing.



biggg hugs chickie


NOW GO!!!

CarrieLee said:

That does suck. It's never a good feeling to be "let go" no matter what the circumstances, but you're on to better things and you can see your pals outside of the bar (God, I sound like a mom - stop me! ) Now go to the doctor!

emm said:

My friends came over and cleaned it out for me!

CarrieLee said:

Jager is good for cleaning out cuts

you think we are going to let this go till you go get checked?



just think how lovely it will look if it gets infected.

They actually put vodka on it first

check this out...

Go to an emergency department by ambulance in the following situations. For people with less severe injuries not requiring ambulance transport, a car may be taken to the hospital.


Severe head trauma, i.e., a fall from more than the height of the person or a hard fall onto a hard surface or object with resulting bleeding or laceration.


Prolonged loss of consciousness (longer than two minutes)

Any delayed loss of consciousness (for example, the injured person is knocked out only momentarily, then is awake and talking, then loses consciousness again)

Vomiting more than once


Confusion that does not go away quickly


Extreme drowsiness, weakness, or inability to walk


Severe headache


Loss of memory of the event (amnesia)


Perseverating (saying the same thing over and over)


Someone who takes warfarin (Coumadin) for a medical problem suffers and suffers a significant blow to the head.


If the person fails to regain consciousness after two minutes, or the injury is very severe even if two minutes have not passed, DO NOT move the person. Prevent movement of the neck, which may cause spinal injuries. If the person needs to vomit, carefully roll the person onto his or her side without turning the head. Call 911 immediately for help.

AND if you get stuck having to go to a hospital in Mexico!

because it's on your face they might be able to use that wound glue to minimize the scaring.

wouldn't that be worth the trip to a mediclinic?

I just cleaned it, it's not that bad.

Seee!

It's amazing how much blood came out of that little thing.

CarrieLee said:

OMG CarrieLee

Wow!

You should see a dr.


I have to say, you are still amazingly beautiful with a nasty wound on your head.
Take care!
