I am dumb

I can't believe I just did that.

Yes, not once, but twice, the guides told us, even though you see us going without shoes on, you need to wear shoes all the time in camp. Yes, all the time. There are rocks around here.

Rocks. Right. The ones I like so much.

The ones I just stepped on barefoot and opened a gash in my right foot about 8mm wide and over 1mm deep. It's right below the scar from the bottle I stepped on when I was 11 and opened up my foot then. It's in a horrible place, as any bandage I put there isn't going to stay.

I am so dumb.
