Rugby boot and elbow at high speed…it didn’t help that the woman wearing the boot was a seven-foot Amazon! ---

Tendonitis in both arms. From knitting too much. No laughing. I went crazy for the two weeks I wasn’t allowed to knit – winter break and I was deprived of my favorite hobby. Now I can only knit for fifteen minutes at a time, and for my current project, that’s only two rows. I estimate I’ll finish it sometime around 2010. ---

I closed the main door to the building on my thumb. It is now a lovely black colour, and is slowly coming off. Nice. ---

Hell, I don’t know. I bruise real easy, you see. If I ever get married and want to sue the hubby for assault with injury, I don’t even need him to actually have hit me, it’s rare for me to not have any bruises. But I don’t know which of the current ones is newer. ---

[QUOTE=August West] My boss stabbed me in the arm with a utility knife yesterday. Left forearm about 3" below the elbow. It was pretty deep, but it was a busy, bizarre day, so I just duct-taped it back together. I should mention that it was accidental. [/QUOTE] Lucky for you you have access to liquid pain reliever right there at work. 😃 ---

[QUOTE=hawksgirl] Started taking a **matiral** arts class this week - Tae Kuk Mu Sul. I was sore after the first class Tuesday, but still went again on Thurs. [/QUOTE] Heh, that could either be marital arts or martial arts. I’m going with marital. ---

i can’t top **NurseCarmen** , but mine’s interesting if nothing else: i was attacked by a bathroom vanity drawer. seriously. i was walking through the bathroom when my robe, which wasn’t belted around me, caught the edge of a slightly-open drawer and yanked it clean out of it’s rails. before i could blink, it had come down on my lower right leg. the rail, which i learned much to my personal misfortune, is quite surprisingly sharp-edged. end result, a lovely inch-and-a-half crosswise gash (that’s going to leave a 1/2-wide scar for quite some time to come) that bled like there was no tomorrow. i still can’t believe a drawer rail did that much damage!! i’ve publicly accused the dive master of sharpening those rails just to annoy me. 😛 ---
