I just walked into the door frame around the door into our study at full walking pace (which is ridiculously fast, in terms of colliding with a solid wooden object).

I thought i had broken my nose. I hate those milliseconds after you hurt yourself where the pain hasn't quite kicked in but good lord you know it is coming and there is nothing you can do....


Thankfully, it didn't bleed and appears to be in one piece still. It's starting to swell up though a little. I can't believe i am as clumsy as i am. :rolleyes: :P

S'okay: I am notoriously clumsy. I run into stuff, drop stuff, spill stuff, trip over stuff, break stuff... If you hang around me long enough, I'll probably hurt you, spill something on you, or run into you. :no:

You needed a note to self about that?

Note to self -- don't get too close to Mik when there's dancing going on.

You can run, but you can't dance hide. Yo' feet is meat, boy... :lol:

ZOOOOOM!
My parents are notorious for taking a little bit of time to fully awake in the morning.

A few years ago, I just got back from work around 3:00 AM, so I was eating some pizza in our kitchen. I heard my dad get up, and make his ridiculously slow shuffle to the bathroom on the opposite end of the house (he'd use that one to not wake up my mom, who's a light sleeper).

shuffle -- shuffle -- shuffle -- BONK.

He missed the turn by about 4 inches, and gave the corner of the doorframe a heckuva headbutt. I went over to see what happened, and he was bleeding all over the place! Head cuts are the worst in terms of blood loss, so it looked a LOT worse than it actually was.

Still though, I ended up taking him to the hospital for stitches! The next morning when my mom got up, she just looked at my dad and his sewn-together forehead and said "what on earth did you do to yourself?!" We just looked at each other.
I cite irreconcilable differences.

Our middle kid, Amy, had a huge late growth spurt during her freshman year. When she had her basketball physical in October, the doctor measured her at 5' 1.5" By the following summer, she was 5'7.5" and the next October, 5'9". She slowed down a bit after that, but during that year was in SERIOUS danger of knocking herself silly everytime she took a tight turn. She just had no idea where anything was in relationship to her body.

I don't have the excuse of growth spurts. I've been the same height for about 8 years. I'm just stupid. :P

Isn't it true that a girl's bones fuse during puberty, and that her growth is effectively limited from that point on?

George?

MP, that's funny...something happened to me today too.

I was fixing the top of a window, looking up..and the blinders fell on my nose. They are heavy, and it hurt.

It's too bad we don't have cat whiskers. Cats use their whiskers to judge distances to make sure they can fit through.

Reminds me of when my son was about 4 and took the scissors to our younger cat Sophia. Sophia has very long whiskers cause she is a very round cat.

She kept bumping into things until those whickers grew back. :rolleyes:

I hope your nose feels better soon MP! :hug:
