There I was doing my business...relax, relax, they aren't bullet holes. And I wasn't shot, but I was injured. Now where was I...
Right, there I was with my drawers in one hand and a door in the other. It's not often you come out of a public restroom with your underpants in your hand, but it's even rarer that you come out with the door on your head either.
That's right! The door was in my hand and not in the I'm-going-to-exit-the-stall-now kind of way. More like don't-let-this-freaking-heavy-door-land-on-my-head-neck-or-toe kind of way. I'm not entirely sure how, but I sort of 'caught' the door and 'placed' it on the floor. All while standing there in my underpants!
Makes a girl think about wearing long pants to and from the actual locker in the locker room when visiting the wash closet. Imagine getting knocked out by a stall door and having your boss come in while you're lying there out cold in your panties on the nasty bathroom floor. But then, who expects to get attacked by a stall door anyway. Could scare the shit out of you....sorry couldn't resist.
But this is truly no laughing matter. And you can clearly see, the hinges are still in tact. This wasn't me pulling the door off the hinges, the damn anchors came clear out the wall! So this was the door AND frame crashing in on me as I was exiting the bathroom, yes, yes, IN my underpants!
And it still hurts. There is some tingling in my upper arm and hand. I've got some pain in a couple fingers when I grasp something in a certain way. Nurse Judy says tingling ain't good. But I don't think it's that bad.
There's just this spot on your elbow, you know the one, it drives the ill-named funny bone...it's a bit sore. When you push on it, as is normal, it causes a pins and needles sensation down your arm. Well, that, is on steroids! It's more like pitons and railroad spikes.
The ride home was a tad uncomfortable. My arm was tired and sore. Tweaking and twisting a handicapped stall-sized door is no easy feat. But a girl's gotta get home. Where it's SAFE to pee in private. Phalanges still tingling...
PS....HAPPY BIRTHDAY DR J! (from me and Nurse Judy)
