In acts of klutziness news...
I bumped my arm into the bathroom cabinet. Since it was within the first five minutes away from REM, I suppose that's why it took me four inches of the cabinet door scratching into my arm for me to notice. I noticed a moment later the clotted line of blood. Gah, blood - I've nearly forgotten what I'm supposed to do - Neosporin it, rubbing alcohol, rinse with soap and water? Which bandage should I use for a scratch that's four freaking inches long?
