[ WP ] `` How 'd you get that scar ? ''

Thought I'd go ahead and tell a true story. 
 
 One week a few years ago during the summer my dad broke his foot and my mom got appendicitis within days of each other. Both bed ridden and high on their own pain meds I was in charge of things around the house including cleaning, business stuff, taking care of my younger brother, etc. At some point my mom asked for some soup so I ran down stairs to make some. In my hurry to open the can I made a large cut on my hand. Before I could clean it up my dad called for me to come upstairs. I grabbed a large towel off the counter to cover my bloody thumb and headed upstairs. Walking into my parents room my parents start screaming at me in horror. Looking down I see that when I opened the can some of the tomato soup splattered across my shirt, the blood bled through the towel, and it basically looked like I chopped my hand off. Took a couple minutes to calm them down but everything ended up ok. 
 
 Anyways I have a tiny scar on my thumb now and it's always a funny story to tell.
