We had my wife's cousin over for dinner and movie. We were at the table talking about some actors and their films when we came across one that he had never seen and that I find hysterical. I was trying to explain to him about a part in the movie "Mr and Mrs Smith", when Brad Pitt is literary, kicking Angelia Jolie while she is laid out on the floor. In my effort to demonstrate it throughly, I got up off my chair to show him how vicious it looked in the movie. Well, I was in my socks on a freshly cleaned hardwood floor. As I swung my right leg back and then let fly forward, my left leg followed suit. Next thing I know I'm in the air with both feet out in front of me.
I landed hard, more wounded pride than anything. My wife is laughing her ass off, her cousin is just staring at me asking if I'm all right, he looks more shocked than I am. I get up, dust myself off and start feeling the throb in my left arm and hand. I've got a nice cut on my inner forearm where I hit the counter top coming down and its swollen up like an egg. I also have a nice black spot on my inner palm thats swelling up pretty good too, must have been when I hit the floor. So, I guess I did do more damage than just the pride.
My arm is still hurting today. Guess I'll be sure to be more careful in socks on a freshly cleaned floor from now on.
Ouch! I'm glad you didn't hit your head on the counter. Great flick though.
ReplyDeleteI think I would have laughed too (after checking you were allright, of course!). You are no Mr Smith, huh? ;)
ReplyDeleteI also love that movie!
Thank you for the concern, at least I can get sympathy from some people.
ReplyDeleteI know KC, she gets of on my pain, I think she is part masochist, well, not it bed at least.
G.G., I'm glad I didn't hit my head too, though I'm starting to feel some other parts of me sore today. Oh well, we live and learn.
France, at least you would wait to laugh until you checked on me. And yea, I guess I'm no Brad Pitt.
OW! I concur that it's very good you didn't hit your head.
