Thin Skin, Thick Head

Occasionally, I'll discover a cut, scrape or bruise on one of my extremities without any recollection of how it got there. My assumption is that I'm simply bumping into things while preoccupied and just don't notice the damage until later. This has happened several times during my premature retirement.

Tonight, I discovered blood smeared on the big toe of my right foot. After a quick check to see where it came from, I discovered a newly scabbed wound on my left foot near the ankle. I can only assume that I had scratched an itch on my left foot with my right toe and somehow caused this wound.

In any event, being oblivious and easily lacerated doesn't seem like a good combination, evolutionarily. Swipe left, girls, swipe left.
