We ain't outta here in ten minutes, we won't need no rocket to fly through space
Went to a gig at the weekend with my friend - GZA from the Wu Tang Clan if you're interested, he was rubbish. So rubbish that we only had about 5 pints (not enough to warrant a fall) and left early to get more beers and hang out at the flat.
I step out of the taxi near home, take 3 steps, trip, and fall headfirst into the corner of a brick wall. Blood everywhere, and I mean everywhere - cuts above the eyes bleed a lot. Girlfriend in a taxi with me to A&E at about 11pm, I get out 5 hours later with 11 stitches and 17 staples in my head. Two enormous, super deep cuts in zigzag shapes, which should leave a couple of gnarly scars. Had a CAT scan (turns out I'm not a cat), no major damage whatsoever. I'm totally fine, just taking it easy. NHS staff were wonderful as always, one of the only good things we have left in this joke of a country.
Gotta go back in a week to get the staples removed. Was a weird feeling having a guy sew two parts of my head back together. Just goes to show how easy it is to fuck yourself up - If I would have fallen with any more force I could be dead. Fallen one inch to the right and I'd probably have missed the whole fucking wall.
