I feel stupid, but...

 Should I worry?

I just went to the bathroom and when I bent over to get toilet paper, I don't know what the heck I did, but I somehow bashed my head on the toilet paper dispenser.  It's one of those square metal ones.  It hurt but I figured I'd have a small red spot, maybe black & blue.  So I get done and look in the mirror and realized I was bleeding!  I've got a very small gash on my right temple.

It's not gushing blood or anything.  After I got the initial stuff cleaned up nothing more has come out.  I think I probably SHOULD put a bandaid on it just in case but I don't want to... :waiting:

What an idiot.

 Just make sure you don't feel faint or woozy, if you do, sit down for a few minutes.

 OUCH!! Sorry that happened! I hope it isn't too serious! I always worry about getting hit in the temple. :?

 I have a desk job so the sitting shouldn't be a problem!  I'm thinking I might have to find some tylenol though...it hurts!  And I'm so vain...I'm sitting here wishing it was just a little bit higher so my bangs would at least cover it.  Image

Ugh.

 ouch!  {{{{{hugs}}}} to you; it should be okay, just don't go to sleep for a few hours in case you have a minor concusion.  Sometimes you think its not that bad a deal, but just be on the safe side.  Some aspirin wouldn't hurt either I'd bet :)
