Today I dropped my pruning sheers and had the sharp tip stick my big toe.
Usually when you cut yourself you have to wait for the blood... but I guess I never realized how much blood pressure you have in your feet (due to gravity).
But rather than raising the affected area, and applying pressure to the wound, I just wrapped in in a dirty towel (so I didn't bleed all over the place), and jumped in the shower.
I though it might be funny to start this thread; a of list of your gardening/construction accidents, falling objects sheet metal, electrocutions, poisonings, etc.
