the problem area.
i was rewinding film on split reels. and i thought that the ferocious nature of the split reel should be stopped. and then i was bleeding everywhere. drinking a lot of blood. i ran to see if lorraine was there because she gives me bandaids whenever i hurt myself. she wasnt there, but i knew someone who was and they thought it deserved health services.
so i walked to the basement of the furthest building on campus. and when i got there they said “we got a bleeder” and put tape saline solution and tape around my finger. and decided against stitches. the skin flap was the issue because it was deeper than superficial. unfortunately in my bleeding state i didn’t get a picture of the inside of the flap. oh well.
and then kevin showed me some awesome stitch scars around his fingers.
addendum: i did not try to stop the spinning involving the circles of the split reel. that would have been ridiculously stupid. rather, my stupidity was that my hand was on the diagonal from the reel.
