I don't think I've ever had a numbing shot. 🙂
I just did the awesomest thing ever! I threw a jacket at my coat hooks (from across the room), and it hung up by the hood perfectly on the hook! Don't you love it when things like that happen?! 😛
I've broken my arm before. 🙄
Broken arms are so annoying because you can't do anything! I couldn't walk the backyard fence, or climb up in the neighbor's treehouse, or get on the clubhouse roof, or ride my bike, or do anything. 🙄
I remember when I broke my left arm, I then rode my bike, fell, and bruised my right hand bones really badly. Couldn't hold anything for days 😛 we even went in and got it x-rayed. It was hilarious. I wish I had broken it, because then both arm would've been in a cast. 😛 and that would've been funny.
Oh, dentists. What scares me most about our dentist is that he doesn't talk. He just does whatever he does. Last time he filled in all my cavities without speaking to me at all. When he finished one side of my mouth, I told I was going to panic if he didn't explain what he was doing in my mouth, and then somebody was probably going to get hurt.
AND YES! The gloves taste AWFUL! And that fluoride stuff, too!
Also, when I was getting my braces put on last month, I amused the dentist by singing with three instruments in my mouth and his hands and his assistant's hands.
*has lots of injury stories* 😛 did I ever tell the one about falling off of Gina? or off of Sebastian during NaNo?
Tell about falling off Gina, Tenny! That was awesome!
(Yay, we can change our avvies!!)
I like fluoride... it's the only good part about seeing the dentist. I hate the "scaling" process, especially whenever the assistant bumps or pokes my gums. *grimace*
I've never broken a bone, either! Which is shocking for me, really. I'm somewhat clumsy and adventurous 😉
One time I stepped on my cat and fell half way down the stairs (she was on a stair or at the top or something and I didn't see her.) It felt like a cartoon!!
LOL! That's hilarious, Anne!
And @Ariel: Yeah, it's nice to not have an avvie with Barney on it...
Whoohoo! Avvies are fixed! Kristi was working reaaaaally hard on it yesterday 😀
Y'all have some crazy injury stories!! I shall add a couple of my own. 😀
I haven't officially broken a bone, but I did chip the bone in my knuckle. We were waiting to watch the fireworks on the 4th of July, and my family was playing the game "Ninja." You have to try to hit each others hands to get them out. Hands only. Well, when it was my turn, I swiped my hand at my brother, and my sister was goofing around and kicked at the same time. She collided with my finger. Then my finger swelled up really badly, and we put a frozen waterbottle on it until we got home from the fireworks. I had x-rays and the whole deal and they told me that there was a chip out of my knuckle. So they wrapped it up and I wasn't allowed to bend my knuckle for a week.
The other crazy thing I did happened at youth group when my friend and I were goofing around. She lay down on a couch and I sat on top of her. She decided to roll out from under me, rolled onto the floor, and that took me with her. I fell on top of her and hit my elbow on a tile floor. I thought I broke my elbow for sure the way I hit it. But it didn't really swell up, it just hurt really badly. So I went to the doctor and they x-rayed it and said that I didn't break it, I just had a bone bruise. Which apparently is a really bad bruise on your bone.
And I already told the story of how I hyper-extended my elbow a couple weeks ago when I was snowboarding.
Eep! That all sounds so painful, Arna! O.O
*Grimaces at Engee's stories* Ouch! O.O Even if you haven't broken a bone you went through some other terrible injuries.
I've flown backwards off a treadmill before and hit the wall, and I've gone parallel with the ground when riding a merry-go-round. I felt so much like a cartoon character both times.
Yeah the cat incident made me laugh when it happened ^_^
