Self-amazement

I don't know how it's possible but I just seriously hurt my finger while washing the dishes. I was washing a bowl when it popped and slipped out of my hands so I tried to catch it before it smashed down. Instead of catching it, the bowl just kind of fell/banged onto my pointer finger. Somehow that triggered massive and numbing pain. So now, amazingly, the whole finger is swollen and changing colors and I still feel a tingly sensation. Great, this will be real fun to sit and write through class this evening. Wow, do I have skills or what?
