Pre-flight

First off - thank you, Matt, for giving me a camera with the explicit instructions to be brave with it and have no fear about it getting stolen!















9:30AM, Friday January, 12th - The Adventure Begins
5 hours before my flight takes off, leaning under my desk plugging in my ipod. Sit up quickly and intimately introduce the top of my head to the corner of my desk. Head - desk. Desk - head.
At the time, it was a pretty impressively perfect Y-shaped (got to love right-angled corners) gash.
The medical-professional parents agreed it was a 6-stitch job, but in the context of a flight to Brazil leaving in 5 hours, a deep cleaning and big bandaid would suffice. This picture is actually from about 20 hours later, when I removed the bandaid in my hotel room in Rio to clean it. Well done, Daniel!
I am the official king of head-trauma.
