E is por Excavación en el oído

Well, Khubz is on the fast track to anthropology. Her favorite excavation site? Her ear. Her external auditory canal. Any spot with thin skin, lots of blood flow and ten additional points if that same site sets off alarm bells for a brain hemorrhage.


This is actually a long story. Here's the ten cent version:

Daycare calls & Khubz is bleeding out her ear. She laid down to nap and blood had pooled out her ear, smeared across her cheek, on her shirt (brand new "My Mommies Love Me" shirt) and on the play pen. COMPLETELY FUCKING SCARY. S and I take her to her doctor as this is ultimately faster than going to the emergency room. She had stopped bleeding.

The dr. is scraping out the dry crusted blood from her ear and my child is babbling happily even as the long plastic hook peels away the scab. "You should know that Khubz is unreasonably good natured and therefore not trustworthy. Something could be wrong even though she's not crying." Happy, happy babble from the child.

Khubz has some kind of tear at the base of her ear canal. Her ear drum is fine. She is not bleeding from her brain. There's nothing to do about it. Don't let her stick any sharp sticks in her ear (and we had just given her a new set of sticks for ear-digging. Poor girl will have to leave them in the package.)

Of course the real kicker to all of this is that I have been bitching a lot about my child. She had us up every hour last night and sometimes every 30 minutes. So I had once again been la madre crespa. And what happens? My child begins bleeding out her ear.


Don't worry. I know, I know. I still get to complain about this girl I love. I'll just need to check her ears afterwords.

On an unrelated note. .
It is really fun to see where I am getting hits from.

Some folks have gotten here by google searching for

  • Orange Fruit Poem
  • Graphic Descriptions of People Injured In Landmines
  • Uvula Fetish
  • Fruits Beginning With H
  • Why is it called "Children of Men"
  • Examples of Juxtapose Poems

Ah, the company you keep. No fears, though. They never stay long.

Yes this was so hurtful to watch when your child is dripping blood on the pillow from her ear.
