Light Fixture Fail

No, this isn't a post about Tim and I installing a light fixture.  It's actually quite the opposite! 

Thursday morning Tim was getting ready to head to work when I heard a crash in the bathroom.  I came to Tim's rescue to find him staring at a light bulb cover that had fallen out and landed in our tub.  It's just a thin little plastic piece that covers the light bulb.  Nothing major.  Tim simply re-installed the thing and went about his day. 

On Friday I had a really long day.  They FINALLY released our rooms to us at school on a temporary permit, (we are under construction) and I worked from morning till night.  I was tired.  I was hot.  I was gross.  I decided to take a nice warm bubble bath.  I got all nestled in and had a wonderful time soaking in the tub.  I had just looked up and had seen the fixture back in its spot and though what would happen if that thing fell while I'm in here?  On about my bath I went.  Until...

CRASH!

That darn thing fell out again.  It crashed into the side of the tub before slicing the tip of my pinky finger nearly off.  I felt the throbbing immediately.  I looked down and there it was.  Red dripping everywhere.  Grabbing the cut I jumped out of the tub yelling I'M CUT!  I'M CUT!  IT GOT ME!  Tim had already made it to the door.  He sees me holding my pinky and sees blood splattered all over the tub and simply asks me what I've done. 

There I stand, no clothes, bleeding, and trying not to cry because my pinky finger feels like it has been cut off. 

Upon first glance Tim mentioned the words hospital, but I quickly shot that down!  By this point I had moved to the bed, still holding my finger with a towl that was now covered with blood.  I am laying there and Tim asks what I need.  My answer, clothes. And at that we both cracked up.  I have tears streaming down my face, although some of them may have been from the pain. 

Two days later I still have a giant gash in my pinky finger.  It's also bruised, which is why I think it hurts so bad.  It sliced the tip in a circle, but left just enough skin that it's still connected.  I swear, only I can almost die by light fixture.  (Exaggerated a bit!)
