The stairs that lead into the house is a fire door. It has a metal gaurd on the bottom. I must have caught the metal at just the perfect angle because when I looked down I had a dime size piece of my skin gone!
It didn't hurt...I think because it was just chop-chop and gone. Unfortunately I couldn't get the bleeding to stop for about 12 hours. It didn't help that I stood most of the day at the beach for Aya's company picnic.
So after about 15-20 minutes my band-aid and gauze would be leaking blood.
If the cut wasn't where my toe bends it wouldn't be bad at all...just like a blister where the skin was ripped off...just deeper. Since it is where I bend my toe that is when it hurts.
Guess I will be wearing slippers all week...as usual!

thanks for sharing. gross.
melissa-
yup, going to try the second skin stuff once it stops bleeding.
jen-
you are lucky. i was going to send you the piece of skin that got ripped off but jack and aya were freaking out about all the blood coming out so i just had to clean up everything real quick.
if this makes you feel better about looking like grover, JT wants to touch my cut or step on it.
i was going to mention that I was surprised that you didn't send me the skin but i didn't want to give you any ideas...
Did you take a picture of the skin? I want to see it!
