"I know what you're thinking, but I REALLY DID walk into a door!"

[peripatetic]

I smack into doors all the time. especially glass ones. it's been far more embarrassing the times I've smacked my face on a window thinking it was open. that always leaves a mark. it'll shock **** out of any witnesses, too. less so me at this point.

I once broke a toe by walking into a closet door. A sliding closet door.

Miscellaneous bruises where I a) bang my arm on a door frame/doorknob and/or b) whack my thighs or calves on tables or bed frames of varying heights, are more common.

Graceful? Not I!

Hope you manage to avoid the shiner!

At one point my living room was so full of stuff, I was having to take LARGE steps to make it from one clear space to another .....missed the clear space, tripped and fell landing with my forehead smack on a small anvil ( don't ask !)

turns out you don't have to get punched in the eye to get 2 big shiners.....apparently falling on an anvil will do it ......


try telling people you got the black eyes from falling on an anvil in your living room ! ....

i bump walls and doorframes all the time... occasionaly one can hear a resounding THUMP across the house...

This is why for the past couple decades, the screen on my grandparents' sliding balcony doors has sported a band-aid.

Of course, I think a cute sticker could serve the same purpose more aesthetically, but whatever works, I guess.

i have a tendency to hit my knee or hip against a table or my parents' bed (my brother and i always take over their room since they have a huge tv). or hitting my arm/shoulder against door frames, which always hurts.

i think i did walk into a door once, and it sucked!
