Hello there boys and girls, how are you today? Can you say PiratePete is an idiot? I knew that you could. Now lets all say it together... PIRATEPETE IS AN IDIOT!!!!!!
WHAT???? SAY IT AIN'T SO!!!
Well I guess that it's true PiratePete is an idiot. What a stupid idiot!!! (now how do I put this?)
So there I was off work at 4 instead of 5 on a Friday, I rushed home and decided to do a little stress management right off the bat and I picked up the bass, cranked my amp up to 11 (it's a Spinal Tap joke) and started to hammer out some wicked loud stuff!
I was really getting into it and stuff was just coming to me, all sorts of improvised transitions between riffs that actually worked for a change and I was in the zone!!!
(No this isn't backwards I do play left handed)
I'm really getting into it when SMASH CRASH! BANG!!!!!! I've been brained and I'm bleeding!!!! WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT??? I reach up to feel my head and there's blood all over my hand so I reach up with the other hand it comes away stickey with blood!! 
HOLY SHIT I'M BLEEDING!!! Then it all makes sense when I go to take a step and I hear a CRUNCH!
I had stepped on the light cover causing it to break again. I guess that in my loudness I couldn't hear the little bolt that holds the glass light shield in place slowly loosen in a menacing manor to the pounding of my bass as I was standing directly under it! What are the odds of this, should I go buy a lotto ticket? Then reson kicks into overdrive and I start to think to myself that maybe I should see how bad these cuts really are.
So I go to the bathroom and wash my hand pretty well and see that I've got a few cuts on my left hand and one on my left arm. I look at my head which now looks like something out of Evil Dead
As I start to clean it up I find a small laceration above my right eye just below the hair line. Stupid head wounds bleed like crazy, and for me that goes double sometimes if my blood is taking longer then normal to clot, and that's what it's doing today
I've got the bleeding under control but one of the ones on my hand seems to maybe be a venous laceration and it keeps oozing dark blood. Oh well it will stop when it wants to. The kicker to the whole story is that not only am I a corpsmen and an EMT but I'm one of the EMS coordinators for the base and I don't even have 1 fucking band aid in the house!!!! (I took my medic bag in to restock it and didn't bring it back yet) How ironic is this the day I don't have my medic bag I'm my own patient!! 
To top it all off my new work out partner at the gym is the former Mr. San Diego and he beat me up pretty good today, that's ok next Monday is legs and I'm going to kill him (I used to help train Olympic hopefulls in long distance cycling)
Hope that everyone has a safe and sane (unlike the way mine has started) weekend!!!
