OUCH!

Yesterday was not entirely cool :(
Took my car and float in for work required for WOF, and closed my fingertip in the door when exitting.
Popped the nailbed up above the flesh, blood everywhere, lots of thoroughly innappropriate language (which funnily enough seemed ENTIRELY appropriate under the circumstances).
Doctor was surprised from the mess to find no break.
I must have looked decidedly odd driving Poppy down the beach with half my hand wrapped up in a bread bag, and soaked head to toe as I worked her mid-cannon deep in the sea.
Luckily her manners are pretty good, and I was able to hold her.
Even more painful than the finger are the prices on the required repairs.
I can't believe how damn expensive it can be, or how bloody long it can take a frickin' mechanic to do the same thing it took Shane and I 25 minutes to do!
If I had more time up my sleeve, and easier parts access I'd do it my bloody self....GRRRRR
