I fought the car & the car won!

by Kate P. on 06/01/2011

The car hates me!

I was at friend’s house yesterday working on a site design for her new business (which I will be blogging about :) ) & I went to put something in the car.

The next thing I know I’m standing by my car holding my head checking for blood & seeing a lot of black!

I wish you could have seen how big my friend & her husband’s eyes got when they saw my head! That’s when I knew it was swelling up huge!!! And that I was officially looking like a freak. *Enter the ice baggy*

I told Todd, he could start calling me the “Elepant Woman” (that joke was lost on him-please reference this link if it was lost on you too: The Elephant Man :) )

I spent most of my day wondering how in the hades that darn door closed without me ever touching it! And then I spent most of my time just clutching my head totally confused. Granted, I’m usually confused, it doesn’t take a whop to the head to do that!

So…the next time you get in a fight with your car? Take note. The car is going to win.

So will your toddler. Mine headbutted me right in the ole goosebump. That felt good. Not.

Oh my gosh!! Ouch. I hope you feel better! I think it’s the shame of having to walk around with a stamp on your head that says “my car kicked my ass!”

I am just getting over a 2 year battle with post concussive syndrome. If you feel dizzy; sick to your stomach or are forgetting silly things please see your doctor immediately.
I’m sure you just wanted to kick the car!

Oh my! You poor thing! That doesn’t look like much fun al all. I understand the confusion. Things seem to happen to me and I have no idea how. Haven’t received a goose egg like that yet, but I’m sure it’s coming.
Hope you feel better! I think your hubby should be opening and holding your car door if he’s around from now on. Don’t ya think? It’s worth a shot!

Oh my goodness! Clunk! Why don’t you come up with a better story? Like how you were hiking up a huge mountain and got hurt saving a baby bear that was falling down the rock. You heroically saved the bear, but slammed your head on the ground.
