Just got back from the ER w/ Jordan. I was bagging up the trash and had just gotten off the phone with my wife (who was on her break at work, at the hospital) when I heard the "crash" of Jordan falling off of something (he's 2), which he does all the time. We met at the door between the bedroom and living room about 4-5 seconds later, and there was blood EVERYWHERE coming from his head. Must have taken me about 20 seconds to have grabbed my wallet and shoes, got him dressed, and out to the car. My V8 Explorer really got a workout on the way to he hospital while Jordan rode shotgun and bled all over the front seat. At the ER, I had them page my wife to the ER, and she comes around the corner and I wave her over from across the room - first she had a big smile on until she realized "where" we were, and then sheer panic as she sprinted over. The ER Doc for the evening is also the SWAT doctor at the Sheriff's Office, so I kinda know him - got Jordan cleaned up, and he just had a little tiny nick on the back of his head!

I couldn't believe it - I knew that heads bleed a lot, but I didn't think it would bleed THAT much from a little tiny cut.

Yesterday, he slammed his finger in the folding closet door and split it wide open - so I'd had the wife and him in the car in about a minute to go to the ER then as well, and on the way over, my wife cleaned it up enough that she could see that it was just very swolen and split, but not deep or in need of stitches.

Last week I had my blood pressure checked at the clinic (I'm 25 y/o and have a BP of like 130/90, so I was just getting it checked out). The verdict then was that I should eat less salt and lose 5 lbs to try and get under 120. Doc told me to check in every week or so to chart my progress. I think I'll wait a couple days, as I'm probably up to about 150 or so now! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

So... how was everyone else's night been <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
