I've had lots of weird accidents.

Age 10- Skating along at a skating rink, and decide to skate over to get something to drink. I'm not so good at the breaking part of skating, and I ended up skating right into a bench (the back of it was neck level). Turns out I hit it so hard my neck swelled and I had a huge goose egg at the point of impact.

Age 11- Ran into my best friend's mother on my bike because I was riding and drinking out of a waterbottle at the same time. Fell on the asphalt and have a nice permanently black scar about the size of a half dollar on my left knee.

Age 12- Carving pumpkins with an exacto knife is not a good idea. Slipped and sliced the whole side of my finger open. Still have a very interesting long scar on my pinkie.

Age 15 - Had to open one of those exposed locks at school by sticking my finger into the lock and pushing the lever down. Some evil kid walked up while I was doing it, and just as I had the lever down he slammed the door open. This resulted in ripping off the bottom of my index finger - you could see the fat under the pad of the finger. My dance teacher wouldn't let me go to the nurse so I had to stand and bleed on the floor until another teacher came in and dragged me - by my injured hand - to the nurse. By the time I got to the doctor there wasn't much left to stich so I had to have those weird "stitch strips". That really sucked because I couldn't use that finger to ride, or play guitar.
