Don't try this at home.....

Sheesh, the first week of school (not even a full week either!), and the injuries are starting up again! Good grief...

Hmm, do I tell you the made-up story of me getting mugged by Muhammed Ali or do I tell the true but embarassing story..... OK, quit guilt tripping me, I'll be honest!

I was cleaning out my dad's car yesterday, just for something nice, since it was his birthday yesterday, I think he'll disown me if I mention his age though. Anyways, I was getting out of the driver's door, didn't look where I was going....
and konked myself just underneath my left eye, hard enough to break the skin. Not a pleasant experience, let me tell ya. I mean. there are few things in life that have enough pain to make my cry at all. One is lip and eyebrow waxing, and then the tears are just from the shock. The other is getting a near-black eye. I mean, I just sat back down, thought some very nasty words at the door, and let a few fat ones out, it hurt so bad. (The very nasty words would have come anyways if I had stubbed my toe, I was refering to the tears.)

About 10 minutes later, I glance in the rear-view mirror, and my face near my eye is all puffy, and I could see a cut where the door it my head. That freaks me out somewhat, so I go out to seek Dad's opinion, and he sends me to the house for an icepack and Mom's help. Ya know, in hindsight, if I had wanted an excuse to get sympathy at school, I should have laid of the ice, but oh well, I got the cut, might be a good conversation opener, lol.

Dad says I hit the door so hard, I'm gonna have a doozy of a shiner tomorrow, Mom says there hasn't been enough discolouration so I'll be fine. Yeeeaaaaaaaah..... sure hurts if I touch it though! Maybe I will get a black eye from this...

Hope I don't get another one before school pictures, that'd be bad!
