  • "You owe me 100 Nazi scalps."

    Ouch, my head!

    I was mopping the floor in the projection booth today. (Something that should be done every Sunday, but isn't). And I bent down to mop and caught my head on the corner of a box that is on the wall.

    I hit it hard and it sent me reeling. When I had recovered my senses, I felt my head. It didn't hurt but it was wet. 'Oh, its bleeding a bit', I say to myself. Then, as I feel the blood run down my face, 'Oh shit!'

    I call manager J and supervisor M (who was a midwife in a past career). The take me to the office and clean me up and bandage my head. I am given strict instuctions to let them know if I feel dizzy, sick or have blurred vision.

    I go back to the booth and get on with showing films, wearing a fetching bandage for the rest of the day. Fortunately I am not concussed, just bloody.

      I did something similar the other day at work. I was covering at the register and when I bent down to put some ink cartridges a customer had turned in for recycling into the appropriate box, I smacked my forehead right on the edge of the counter.

      Luckily, I didn't get hurt at all, though it did hurt like hell.

      I was in full blown klutz mode that night. In addition to smacking my head, I nearly tripped going up the ladder, nearly sliced my finger, and had a terrible case of the Drops.

          Owie. Scalp wounds bleed like crazy. I'm surprised you didn't need stitches or anything. I hope you're still okay.

            If I had a dollar for every time I've stood up and hit my head on a lowered truss that I was working under, or a lighting fixture (sometimes one I just hung)...
