The pain of living in dorms

I can't believe I haven't written about this earlier.

OKAY.

Just let me prepare myself for the story I am about to tell. If you are not already sitting down, you may want to take a seat. Brace yourself.


My story begins yesterday evening, about 11 pm. I was walking through Mcgriffley with KC, Blake and Tedros. We were on our way to a party at the Birchwoods. It was a little late to not be drunk, and we wanted to change that. KC is walking in the front, I'm walking almost directly beside Tedros, and Blake is following close behind. Deep into whatever conversation we were having, I turn to Tedros to tell him something.

Just as I turn to the left, my world comes to a complete and utter end. I am stopped mid-step and prevented from walking any further. I can't see. My vision finally comes back and I start to feel it. The entire right side of my face screams as I realize what an idiot I am. My head throbbing, I regain my balance and try to laugh it off as it hurts like hell.

Basically I walked into a door.

No, not the wide flat part of a door but the open edge. That fucking three inches that stick out into the hallway and don't give way when you ram your body into them. Or just your head.

So I ran into a door. Fuck you. I bet you've done worse. After the fact, we realized it was quite funny. The best part was that I was 110% completely SOBER. And I knocked my head fucking hardcore against that door. We couldn't stop laughing, even as the pain penetrated my body. Maybe you had to have been there, but it was incredibly fucking funny. Halfway to the Birchwoods, Tedros is still cracking up. He had the perfect view of my face collapsing; he was in that perfect alignment where he saw the contact, he saw the reaction, and then died of laughter. KC had a pretty good view too. She just looks back and sees me collapse. Oh god. At least something happened last night, since the rest of it was a failure. Well there's my story.



ps- Is it sad that I STILL read Alex's blog about his visit to come see me a month ago? I can't help it, I love reading it... http://alexcantsee.blogspot.com/2005/11/4-days-of-heaven.html
