Tomorrow is too late scooter, they don't like to stitch a wound that has been open for over 8 hours. Get in before that or you will have a much slower healing process.
I was talking about flying.
Gotta say one thing, you are tough. Anytime I see a bone with no meat or skin on it I have it fixed.

Let me tell you a little story. I had a friend who was about 65, he was out castrating cattle when he nicked his thumb. Nothing bad just a little cut, he rinsed it and bandage it up. A few days later he had a systemic infection. The docs put a port in him to deliver antibiotics, tried a couple of different ones but in the end it was too late. He passed 1 month after the little cut.
Moral of the story, you never know and it is not worth the risk.
