Cut my finger the other day, at Mom and Dad's house.
Dad helped with the pressure dressing and I made the trip to the ER.
Of course everyone there made fun of me, and also made the point that if I hadn't taken vacation that day I wouldn't be getting stitches.
The next pic is a little gory, sorry for those of you with weak stomachs.
The green band is a tourniquet,
as there was lots of bleeding due to cutting the artery.

Anyway, stitches out next week, so just hanging until then.
