CLOSE ONE!
I was visiting my dad yesterday, and carrying some stuff to the car I took from there, so I opened the garage door with one hand, I had piled stuff to my lap so much I couldn't see, but that's ok I know my way around there.
It rained hard outside so I thought I'd make a run for it, not up for getting soaked outside. So I dash, take the first step and BAAAAAAM! face first to the garage door opening mechanism. Bastard made from metal!
I felt it going to the wrong place, little between my eye and the bone next to it. Nasty. It also hurt like hell, had stinging pain in me brain. Did I drop a single item? Of course not. Did I rush them to the car in the rain? Yes I did, and THEN I came back to see what happened to my face/eye. BEcause that's the caliber of a man I am.
Anyway I was definitely hurt. My left eye started swelling fast and I had to put some ice to it so my eye wouldn't shut. Gave me a proper headache too!
Now I'm ok though. But now that I look at the bruise, I can see it was so close to actually getting in to the middle of my eye instead of to the side where while it hurt like hell, it didn't damage my eye. One millimeter, two millimeters to the right, who knows.
I know one thing though.. the door didn't win me, even though it hurt me bad and tried to blind me. I slammed the door shut and let the metal bastard knwo what I thought of it, and it didn't do anything back anymore, it was scared of me. So I won I feel.
