"I got up this morning to find blood marks on my kitchen floor, on further inspection, it seems I managed to cut my toe somehow and didn't even notice.
How the hell does that happen"
You must have knocked your toe or your nail |

"Do you have diabetes?
Diabetes does not make your feet bleed you just have to be carefull with feet"
I don't think that's what he was suggesting lol
Diabetic neuropathy can cause numbness in your extremeties and so you can cut yourself without noticing and wounds can take longer to heal leading to infections.
It's a serious thing. If you're diabetic and ring the Dr saying you have numb toes etc they give you an emergency appointment. I know. I had a shitty receptionist tell me I had to wait 2 weeks for an appointment once. When I explained why I needed one she found one that day. Luckily I was fine though. |

Check your socks for holes...
I read this article once about this parasitic little monster that hides in shoes, especially in warm weather like this time of year. Once the shoe is on it gets through the sock and into your flesh like a tiny burrowing foot-mole. 
I made that up, but I bet your skin's crawling now! |

It's not that far fetched. In afric bot flys lay their eggs in clothes hub out to dry then the larvae hatch while you are wearing the clothes and burrow into your skin.
Also jiggers do the same. The eggs are laid in the sand and the larvae burrow in to people's feet. I believe people can get shaggers disease from them.
I quite like watching videos of bit fly and jigger removals  |

In a ball gown because that's how we roll in N. Devon |
In the middle of the night you sleep walked to the kitchen in bare feet.
You cooked yourself a bacon sandwich. While the bacon was grilling, you decided to test out your hitherto untested knife juggling skills.
Unfortunately, you've not been doing it long and you chose 5 (because you have jumped in at advanced level) completely different knives to use, making it more difficult to get the balance right.
One by one, you dropped the knives. Upon finding yourself with only one remaining in your hand you got angry and threw said knife to the work surface, where it hit the glass you had removed from the cupboard in preparation for a beverage to go with your bacony treat.
The glass broke, sending shards all over the kitchen. You swore. Loudly.
At this point, your bacon hit the perfect crispness, and you built your bacon sandwich, then settled down to eat it. You enjoyed it.
Needing a beverage, you carefully stepped around the glass and knives on the floor and grabbed some milk from the fridge. Unfortunately you spilled some on the floor while putting it back (also, dude, drinking from the bottle! Outrageous!).
Your hunger and thirst sated, you went back to bed.
An hour later your sleep walking self heard a noise in the kitchen. You got up to investigate and found that you had left the window open and there was a cat licking at the milk on the floor. In shock, you jumped and startled the cat, who, believing it was about to be under attack, lashed out and cut your toe with its claw before escaping out of the window. You swore again (rude), and decided you should put the kitchen to rights before morning, as no one wants to wake up to a mess like that.
But you forgot you were bleeding and didn't wipe up after sweeping and putting away all the knives.
Hope that helps. |
