I know I shouldn't be chuckling and I'm glad you are ok but all I can think of is the Windex add where the crows ring the guys doorbell and then quick fly around the back of the house and shut the patio glass door so when he comes back he walks right into the glass. Sorry David I'm glad you are ok.
PatH...think now might be the time to play David in a ladder match...oh wait that was two loose teeth not two loose eyes never mind

Well, not really (sorry, Eric)..
I went shopping with my wife on Sunday and she literally wore me to a
frazzle going from store to store and shopping mall to shopping mall.
It's not just me she does this to, all of her friends complain she
walks their legs off - picture the Energizer bunny on steroids. I
dropped her off home at her car and she went off to do more shopping.
Anyway, when I got inside, I walked in the living room with my hands
full of shopping bags... and stepped on the dog.
He let out a piercing shriek and I lunged forward to avoid stepping on
him again... by that time he'd already moved and I tripped over him,
losing my balance and, because my hands were full and I couldn't put
out a hand to stop myself, I did a face-plant into the plate-glass
window of the pool room and knocked myself silly. I didn't pass out,
but I was a bit dazed and had to lay there for a while with the dog
whining and licking blood off my face.
I assessed the damage and decided that I had loosened two front teeth,
my nose was bleeding but not broken (I wasn't absolutely sure, but it's
been broken twice before in boxing matches so I was fairly familiar
with the symptoms), I was going to have some real doozy bruises on my
forehead, and I had a slight concussion. When my wife got home, she
took a quick look, noted that I'd scratched the glass on the door and
said, "I hope you didn't get any blood on the carpet...?" I allowed as
how I hadn't, probably because of the dog licking it off me while I was
lying there. I was deeply touched by her obvious compassion and
sympathy.
She insisted that I go to the clinic because she thought my pupils were
still uneven. I told the doctor what happened and said that I had
loosened two front teeth, my nose wasn't broken, I had some real good
bruises, and I thought maybe I had a slight concussion. He took a look
and stated that he thought I had loosened two front teeth, my nose
wasn't broken, I had some real good bruises, and maybe I had a slight
concussion. No wonder they are well paid.
This morning everyone is asking me what happened to my face. I say
cryptically "I've been Eric'd..." and change the subject or walk away.
