So apparently, unbeknownst (yes I just used the word unbeknownst) to myself and my face, I decided that this is the year I am going to give myself a black eye. It’s only April, and already I’ve made two attempts.<\/p>\n
Attempt #1<\/p>\n
Back in February, I was sitting on the couch watching the Olympics when my phone rang.\u00a0It was across the room. So naturally, I hopped up and ran towards it. But the little rubber\u00a0grabbers on the bottom of my socks were defective. Before I knew it, my feet flew out from under me, and I fell face first into our concrete floor,\u00a0catching myself\u00a0with my cheekbone. Aaron thought I had knocked myself out, but\u00a0turns out I am pretty hard-headed. So despite my best\u00a0efforts to give myself a black eye, I escaped without even a bruise. (I’m still trying to figure that one out.)<\/p>\n
Attempt #2<\/p>\n
Yesterday morning. I was heading into our bathroom to get ready for church, when I spotted Aaron’s dirty socks on the floor. (The man leaves a sock trail all over the house. I’ve begged and pleaded to no avail. The socks and Aaron are winning.) So needless to say, I was annoyed that his socks were on the floor, but instead of getting mad and nagging him to pick them up, I decided to just do it myself. I bent down, picked them up, and then\u00a0 attempted to go into\u00a0our bathroom. But I forgot to tell my nose. The rest of my body managed to make it into the bathroom, but my nose tried to stay in the bedroom. All Aaron heard was a loud bang followed by screaming. I hit the side of my nose on the door frame. No blood, but an instant bruise.\u00a0My nose is a bit tender this morning, but besides a red bump on the side of it, I once again appear to have escaped a black eye.<\/p>\n
I guess I will have to try harder next time. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
