I firmly believe all irony is stupid.

Case in point: I got a three inch, blood-gushing, paper cut on a letter from the EMS Bureau. (Why yes, it did need stitches. I wish I could fully express my "-_-" online, but you’re just going to have to take my word for it. Stitches. From a paper cut.)

They say I’m taking my EMT licensing exam a week from Saturday. I think this bodes ill for those in need of emergency medical assistance here in the the state of New Mexico. Because… man, if I can do that with a piece of paper? How bad will it be when someone expects me to start IVs?

Wow. I didn't realize paper could be so dangerous.

That's awesome that you're going to be an EMT. You're going to have amazing stories for us, I bet...

I think needing emergency attention because of a letter from EMS is a good sign, myself.

Wow! Congratulations!

And I know how you feel; I think to myself "who's going to want me to perform surgery when I can't even make it through a doorway?"

Think about it - you could perform an emergency tracheostomy with a postcard if you had to. That's a plus.
