First the snake incident the other day. Then the battery for my boat was dead as a door nail this morning after charging it all night. I had to rush to Walmart to buy another one before the not so spontanious fishing trip. Then while out on the water, I hung a really nice fish. But the fish decided, he would rather catch me instead. So the fish threw the hook as I was grabbing him and it pushed the fish hook deep into my left index finger.
Now, in situations like this (I have found myself in before) I would push the hook through until the barb came through the skin and cut off the barb and then push the hook shank back through. Presto, hook removed although a might sore. But with my luck this week, would it, could it be that simple and easy?????? Ooooooooooh Noooooooo, not me. The hook actually went deep enough for the point to stick into the bone in my finger. So out patient surgery was the only option. Fortunately they were able to get the hook unstuck and was able to get it out without cutting open my finger.
On top of all that, my fishing trip had to be cut short and that is what really P!$$ed me off to no end.
I'm going to be thrilled when this week is over with.

Sorry you're not having such a good week, I hope it turns around by the weekend.
