Did you ever have an accident, nothing bad just something that left visible marks, and wish you had a heroic or scary tale to tell how you got the injury, because the truth was just too stupid for words? Hi, guess who is currently hobbling around with a bruised up knee and a bump on the head whishing for a good story instead of the truth.
How do you explain to someone that, in the middle of night, you decided you desperately needed something from the bottom drawer of the closet, so you knelt down, in the dark, and managed to hit the edge of your laptop's AC-adapter with a really, really bad spot pretty much exactly on the edge of the kneecap? If you ever need to incapacitate someone, kick them in the knee. I dare them to stay standing. Holy crap, that hurt. I have a high pain tolerance but for a moments there I wanted to cry. I have never seen a bruise purple up that fast.
And the bump on the head, you ask? Well, after I injured my knee I fell over sideways and hit my head on the edge of the coffee table.
Sigh.
