I just got hit in the face with a smoke detector.
I was trying to pry it off the wall, and the cover flew off and hit me in. the. face.
In the mouth, to be specific.

On the plus side, I think I'm going to have a slightly puffy lip. Cheaper than collagen!

I'm so good at being so dumb. I think I need a badge.

:P :
crazy:

3. smoke detectors can be agressive when cornered
it's better to just shoo them out the back door with a broom

4. It's okay. I exacted my revenge.
I chucked it across the room and it cracked.
See if that bastard messes with me again!

5. I'm wearing a skirt today
and I whacked my ankle with my son's wheelchair (well, the footplate anyway) and then scratched my leg with the car door. It looks like a meany kicked me in the leg a couple of times (which I intend to let folks believe unless Mr. Debi is extra-special sweet to me today :P)

Hope your lip feels better :hi:

6. Lol! The aesthetic appeal of my legs is always tainted by bruises.
pale + clumsy = bad

7. Gee, mine just makes an obnoxious noise
I'd say yours is probably more effective at alerting you to danger.

15. I think DU needs a Klutz Group
I'd be proud to be a member. I once used a restroom at a small store and the light didn't work in it. So I peed in the dark and when I leaned over to grab my pants, I bashed my forehead on the sink and blacked both my eyes.

Of course, everyone thought my boyfriend did it. Everyone who didn't know me, that is. :P
