What not to do

I have a little desk-office thing in my kitchen. The cupboard above the desk starts about my chin-level and goes up to just a foot below the ceiling. This is where we store tape and scissors and pens, pencils, paper, phone books, etc. On the bottom shelf I have a little wooden bowl into which I drop paper clips or safety pins when Ezra brings them home from school. I needed a paper clip the other day so instead of pulling the bowl out of the cupboard (which I normally do), I stuck my head inside the cupboard, I guess it made sense at the time to look for the clip before I put my hand in to get it out. Anyway, just as i stuck my head over the bowl, I sneezed.

It has been about a week and the mark on the bridge of my nose where it hit the razor-sharp edge of the cupboard is still an red-open wound and I am still getting questions about it from many small children.
