I almost peed on a rattlesnake once! Me and the good Lord had a nice conversation after I noticed it there, while I zipped up. I was considering whether to push it and play with the snake a little to see if I could uncoil him and help me ID him. He was pretty pissed off...at least not pissed ON! haahhahalmao! Then suddenly I remembered that snakes can jump 1.5 times their body length and decided I had enough of a break already so I split.
This is from the female point of view you understand, I was squatting, facing away from the snake, my butt and other business perched precariously over this animal. I peed like I didn't have a care in the world, then I almost peed again when I saw him there.
He was a little baby one, or else a pygmy rattler, and he was just a-rattling as hard as he could, but he didn't make any noise and he was perfectly camouflaged there on the leaves. I guess it takes a while for their moraccas to get pebbles in them...which leads me to believe that he was a baby...translation more dangerous than the adult version of whatever it was (babies inject venom without restraint...adults are more calculating)
SO...anyway, I'm so glad I didn't have to go to ER for that one.
Another time, my group had made the decision after hiking along a creek to cross on a log...we needed to cross and this was the first logical place for several miles. This was about a thirty foot balancing act, and I am a complete twinkletoes.
Well, I got about 10 feet from the edge on the other side, my knees were knocking so hard I lost my balance and fell in. On the way down, I smacked my pinky on the log and shattered my knuckle. When I was evaluated by our medic (I was working at wilderness camp with a medic on staff, check my pic!) he said that since I could move that finger, there wasn't a break. But that was not the bone that was broken! He thought I had dislocated it and sent me to ER the next day when I was still whining and the swelling didn't stop. SO...I was reset a day late and my pinky still doesn't work right and I have a touch of arthritis in it.
Yet another time, I had to go to ER because I ripped open my knee on a parking lot full of pretty large sharp jaggedy gravel (baseball sized). That wasn't fun, I got 4 stitches and a tetanus shot, and I am severely needlephobic.
I call that experience my lesson in same-day karma because earlier that very day my co-worker had snagged his leg on a rusty barbed wire fence. At first, he committed to being checked out at ER for a tetanus booster free with wk comp, and then his shots got increasingly more up to date as the time grew near. Finally he chickened out altogether and I called him a big baby. Boy did I get mine!

Their were some people camping next to us and decided to cook a big can of dinty moore beef stew and it was a big # 10 can. Nothing wrong with cooking it in the can but you need to cut an opening in it and they did not do that. So it exploded and it blew their camp sight down literally tent and table beef stew all over the place including my truck. After the initial shock we were laughing so hard these people covered with stew. It really was a mess.
