Oh yay!

You see, my computer chair is a wheelchair with a tall backrest and handrest at both sides. It has a fun side to it-you can seat on it and tilt it bachward like a rocking chair and you do not even need to make it such that the wheels lift into the air so just then, i was happily doing the rocking motion when i tilt too far back.

You can guess what happened. The center of gravity was shifted too far to the top, the wheels lifted and the chair went backwards. Needless to say, i followed suit. The falling seemed so slow that i had not had time to even realize the full implications of what was going on and the next moment, i found myself on the floor, lying on my side and cradled within the armrest.

My mother was on the floor and just behind the chair so it was a relief the chair had not crushed into her. It would be for a while before she dares to lie at that spot but i doubt i would ever be rid of the habit of rocking my chair; just give me a few hours or even minutes... ^_^

extremely memorable
