annundrielLJ's Writer's Block today asks about accidents and close calls. I was going to say that my life is really safe and I don't even have close calls, except for that time I almost broke my ankle falling of the bed.
And then I remembered that time I fell off the haystack and landed on my head. I almost forgot about that. And that could have been really serious.
I think it gets forgotten because EB hyperventilated immediately after and Dad and Grandma fluttered around her freaking out. They put me on the couch with an ice pack and left me to my own devices. Years later I now think, "Hey! I could have been concussed!"
