Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
When I was a kid, I stayed every summer with a family who to this day are my real family (the Bradsberrys). They lived on a sprawling, run down farm in Humboldt Co. Every summer (and only then) I managed to do something that landed me in the E.R. One time in the barn, I stepped on a 3 inch nail that was sticking out of a plank and it went straight up through the sole of my foot with the tip of the nail sticking out of the top of my shoe. Another time I grabbed a cookie sheet out of the oven with both hands. Um, let me just say that we had to take the cookie pan with us to the hospital because we couldn't separate it from my hands. Yeahhhhhh.... And then another time we were horsing around on the pull-out couch and my "sisters" pulled me up by both legs and my head landed on the piano keys. We kept playing until we realized that a piano key was embedded in my forehead. Now that's a good scar. 27 stitches and my eyebrow over my left eye still won't grow in properly.
But I loved staying with the Bradsberrys, wounds and all.

Oooh, and my lawnmower story!

Over the course of one summer, my brother was one nail short of a stigmata.

Wow!!! What happened? Or is it too gruesome?
Two separate incidents of stepping on nails and once falling and catching a nail in the palm. The bad luck of an active boy.
Yeee-ouch!
As Buffista injuries go, the piano key in your forehead may be even more awesome than Erin stabbing herself in the ass with her own knife. Plus, Spike-like eyebrow scar!
OTOH, I can't decide whether to cuddle your child self with the cookie pan, or to run away and never stop screaming.
LOL, JZ! Everyone was pretty much horrified. I was in shock so pretty much had to be told later what happened. I DO remember one of the sisters running to the fridge to get a stick of butter(!) because she thought it would help separate my hands...
It didn't. But it sizzled up real nice.
