Lets try this again...It has been a month today since my last post and I feel like I have a million and one things to catch up on. So today, tomorrow and possibly the next day I am going to attempt to bring everything up to date starting with New Years and moving forth....
My finger is probably the biggest souvenir I am going to leave Chile with. I was working one night in the bar and fell victim to a glass breaking and slicing a very long, very deep cut into the side of my finger. The accident required a trip to the Puerto Varian hospital where an Argentinian doctor put 25 stitches put into it. From there, I had also acquired a fantastic finger splint that kept my finger erect and flipping off all who passed by for the next month. Most people found the humor in it and accompanying their greetings with flipping me off in return. The pictures are the stages from day two to when I got the stitches removed to today, almost two months later. I was asked so many times what happened to my finger by people that only spoke Spanish that I wrote out the story in Spainsh as well. The Story is creatively entitled Mi Dedo (My Finger) and it goes like this:
Yo
estaba lavando un vaso en el trabajo y cuando fui a ponerlo para secar se
rompió contra la barra cortando mi dedo. Todo ocurrió tan rápido, yo no sentí
que el vidrio me cortó, pero luego miré mi dedo, y me di cuenta de que el corte
era muy largo y muy profundo. Keko me llevó a la clínica y me pusieron 25
puntos.
