Wanna hear about a bonehead? Literally? Last night I was at work a little late, getting some newsletters in the mail.
Walked down one flight of concrete stairs with my arms full of internal mail envelopes… Started slipping, dropped the envelopes on the stairs in front of me, scrambled for purchase, slipped on the envelopes, tried to break my fall with my right arm and went a*s over teakettle down to the concrete floor. When my head hit, I heard a noise that sounded like this online game I’ve been playing called “Cubis”: ZzzhooNNNG! I even saw the game flash before my eyes.
I have a bump on the right side of my head, about two inches above my ear, and my shoulder is really sore… I wonder if I almost dislocated it? Anyway, the first thought I had, after the world stopped spinning, was of people who bump their heads and remember things they forgot a long time ago or abrubtly stop some habit they’ve been struggling with… And in the comic books, then enjoy extraordinary powers. So I’ve decided that this pain MUST have a purpose. I now have the magical ability to stick to my Weight Watchers points. Temptation has no affect on me! Chocolate? What’s that? Beer? Bah! Bring on the dancing cheesecakes!
[Pink Panther]You “buuumped your head?” “Does your doggie bite?” [/Pink Panther].
Sorry to hear you buuumped your head. I did that once and I actually saw cartoon birds flying around my head! It’s scary. I hope you’re feeling better.
I always thought the coolest part about getting hit hard in the head was how it really did sound like someone had rung a gong in my head. I’d always thought “rung his bell” was a figure of speach.
Hm. Didn’t Uri Geller always claim he got his powers after hitting his head as a kid? Maybe you’ll get psychic powers and be able to talk to dead people. Or at least convince yourself that you’re doing so while other people laugh at you.
Oh, Gazelle, that’s just too hilarious! I think people falling down is the funniest thing in the world. But don’t feel too bad about hitting your head. This morning I head my head on my knee. Yes, on my own knee, and it hurt too. :wally
Sorry about your head. Put something from your freezer on it: it’sll get the bump down.
All I have learned from falling (the kind where you’re in midair, your feet are sticking out infront of you) is that there’s just one thing on your mind:
