Stiches or not???

I couldn't decide if I should have stitches on this gash, but ended up not going to the ER. Didn't want to waste my Saturday there, and didn't want them to shave my hair. Vain yes, but I also didn't think it was deep enough. It bled a bunch, as all head wounds do, but stopped pretty quickly.
I was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and managed to get in the way of a log that was coming down the hill that took a bounce and went the way Mike didn't expect it to go... We were trying to clear out a dead tree that had fallen during the crazy winds recently. I will have a headache for days, I'm sure!
