mapsedgeStory: I once took a shot to the lower lip from an overly enthusiastic five year old (someone else's): I bent down, he jumped up, the top of his head drove my teeth into my bottom lip. I immediately went to the bathroom, leaving a large drop of blood on the floor about every three feet. (Where's Marg Helenberger when you need her?) It hurt, but not too bad.
He followed me into the bathroom, and I bent over the sink, rinsing my mouth with cold water. He asked, "Is it bleeding?"
Dude, facial wounds bleed like they'd drain your whole body plus the person next to you. Of course I didn't say that to him. I'm not mean or anything like that.
I stopped rinsing, let the blood build a bit. I answered, "A little..." and let my mouth fall open. Blood everywhere, down my chin, splattering into the sink. His eyes got huge...he went pale...then a little green.
My work here is done.
