I think my exam went well today. I didn't get many of the bonus questions though, but I think I did good on the standard questions so hopefully I won't need the bonus questions. The teacher wasn't actually there to administer the test though, his son came instead because the teacher was at a required conference. So anyway after the exam the rest of my classes were the usual. I was actually able to stay awake in my government class today though which is quite an acomplishment. After classes I ate a quick lunch then headed over to work. Work was anything but normal today. Once I got to work, Scott had to head out to a service call. So I was left running the store for about an hour or so while he did that. Jen was there though (Andy's Wife) She does the accounting and is unable to help customers on the phone or walk ins so I still pretty much have to run everything. But anyway shortly after Scott left I decided to go out and check the mail. On the way out I was talking to Jen and I wasn't looking and I run full force into the metal door. (the corner of it) It makes a huge Gung! Sound. At first I'm just like ouch... but I keep walking and still go out to check the mail. Then when I get back I sort through the mail and try to hand some to Jen. And Jen realizes I have blood streaming out of the gash that is now in my head. (only about 30 seconds had passed since I hit the door). By now I realize it too because the pain dulled enough to feel it dripping down my head. Then while my head is streaming blood the phone rings. So Jen runs to the back to grab some paper towels and the first aid kit. While she does that I answer the phone. I try to get through the call as fast as possible but in the middle of the call another call comes in so I have to put that one on hold and answer the other one. So I'm tossing between both calls meanwhile I'm starting to get dizzy and my head is really hurting. I finally get through both calls and run back to the bathroom so I could see how bad it was, but half way there two customers come in the door so I just grab the paper towels from Jen and just hold those to my head while I help the customers. I had explained what happend so they understood and quickly asked thier questions and left. Now finally nobody was on the phone and no customers to help so I was able to get back to the bathroom and see the damages. At first glance it looked huge. I thought I was going to need stiches or something.. but it turns out it was just blood drying all over on my head. I just went through a couple of paper towels and it started to slow down the bleeding. After all was said and done, it turns out it was all cause by a cut only about an inch long. But anyway after that was settled and Jen tried to clean me up a little bit I was still going to have to be there running the store for another 30 minutes before Scott would come back. I managed ok but my head was throbbing and I felt a little woozy. After Scott returned he found me some Advil and I took those and they seemed to help quite a bit. Once I felt better I ended up just cleaning out our storage room for the better part of the rest of the day. Its amazing how much room we had wasted with unorganized stacking. It looked so much better once I finished with that. Once work was over, since I had the vacum out and was still sort of in a cleaning mood I decided to stay after and vacum out my van and organize everything in there. I ended up being at work until around 7:30 doing that. I was able to get back in time still to get take out though so I wouldn't have to miss dinner. After getting back to here I just started getting some buisness taken care of before my trip to Georgia on Saturday. I had e-mails to go through and just some general things to do computer wise before then. So I've been working on that all of this evening. Tomorrow I will do my packing and things. Well anyway, I think that Advil that I took at work is starting to wear off so I'm going to get to bed while I still can. I hope you all have a wonderful night!
