Had to go to the hospital earlier ....

I was pulling the exhaust off the car earlier and either rust, a burr, dirt or some alien form of debrit got in my eye. I proceeded to wash it out for 15 minutes according to OSHA standards but then I was forced to seek medical attention.

I couldn't even open it. The gave me a tetnus shot, numbed it with some kind of eyedrops (I think it had to be liquid cocane) cause it felt wonderful after that, and cleaned it out. They also said I scratched my cornea a little (but not cause for too much concern) and gave me antibiotic eyedrops.

Got back home, made sure to grab my safety glasses, and had them on each time i got under the car after that, and will continue to do so.....

I hope my health insurance covers most of it cause I dont have the money for this crap...
