When Princesses Collide

[saffronhare]

Blood and tears greeted me at the door last night.

Seems Princesses Boredom and Sticky had a collision on the porch involving the sky chair, the concrete floor, and a face. Everyone is fine, though Princess Boredom does not think this is funny at all and will not thank me if she finds out I'm telling anybody about it. So...shush. :)

I'm not certain exactly how it happened, but it sounded like a genuinely unfortunate and calamitous accident. They're both going through clumsy phases right now and I suppose it was inevitable. PB is crushed, and so is (very likely) PS's nose. That's right: the littlest is sporting a swollen and discolored nose, a couple of mild shiners, a fat lip, and a lovely bruise under her chin. I suspect she's got a teensy-weensy fracture in her teensy-weensy nose and there's not a damn thing to be done about it.

Poor kid went to bed with a soft/gel ice pack last night. There doesn't seem to be anything seriously misshapen; the bleeding stopped and she can breathe through both nostrils, so I'm not particularly alarmed. Just taking after her mom, that's all.

Real funny, though, that agrnmn will be taking her out and about with him today -- they'll be visiting KU to get his transcript and then delivering it to the KCK school district office. He promises he'll try to look respectable.

Unless it has to go to personnel, and not Barb's office. Then it's downtown. I think.

Helpful, am I not?

I'm not helpful at all, since I have no idea where he'd intended to take it and can't reach him right now anyway. I know he did speak with Barb yesterday. It's also possible that, if he takes it to the wrong place, the friendly people there will point him in the right direction -- one advantage to bringing it in person instead of sending it through the mail. We'll see. :)
