Testing Out the ACC

bandage

Well today I got to test out New Zealand’s ACC benefits, which cover all accidents in NZ. Apparently when you just finish sharpening a large kitchen knife to a razor edge you shouldn’t leave it on the counter with half of the handle hanging over the edge. A whole lot of blood and two stitches later I was driving myself home from the emergency room, (Marcy won’t drive our car) no bill and a very interesting demonstration on how to tie stitches and an explanation on how local anesthetic works.
