So last night Kevin planned a dinner/ picnic date. So I got home from work and he had everything ready. We went to the park and ate. Then after we took out our airsoft guns and started playing with eachother a little bit. I shot Kevin and he was going to shoot me back so I closed my eyes, turned around, and then started running. Not a very good idea. I ran into a pole getting the concussion and my glasses tore out a chunk of my face. I didnt see see my face but Kevin just said we need to go to the ER. So I got a C.A.T scan and 4 stitches to close the hole up. It's right on the corner of my left eye. I was lucky that I didnt hurt my eyeball!
But Kevin was soo good. He didnt even laugh! Well not till I was all stitched up and better. I know that had I seen someone run straight into a pole I would have had a hard time not laughing. I think it would have been impossible for me. He kept me awake in the ER cuz I just wanted to close my eyes and stood by me holding my hand. It was a little scary for me cuz i havent had stitches since I was 3 and the whole having to get shots right by my eye didnt help. My dr. was young and thought it was funny when he was saying "ok come here and scoot closer to the needle" He even asked if I wanted to have it stiched up as an initial. He and Kevin thought it was pretty funny.
Kevin dedicated a song to me (after I was better). "Boom, Boom, Pow" by Blackeyed Peas. When he sang me that part he even acted it out. He pretended he was shooting the airsoft guns ("boom boom") and pretended he hit a pole ("pow"). I couldnt stop laughing. It was pretty funny. Im even cracking up right now.So it just hurts to make facial expressions (even smiling, and now I cant roll my eyes at Kevin lol), my head still hurts, I feel a little sick and I am still kinda dizzy. The Dr. said I can feel this way for a week. But I cant work out at all or do anything involving too much movement for a week. Shucks.. I cant workout- Dr's orders!!
Im just dreading the ER bill....
In the picture it looks like i have bags under my eyes but I dont. It's the swelling. I wouldnt let Kevin take a picture of my full so that you can tell the difference of the two sides. Sry.. the no make up and stitched thing is to gross! so heres an eye...

Wow.. you need to be careful! I bet it hurt so bad!! And if I had to have a needle by my eye I think i'd pass out and make the situation worse... Glad you're okay. Take it easy and watch out for those poles.
Oh you poor girl! Ouch! Good for Kevin for waiting to laugh after wards. I walked into a pole once, because I was reading and walking. Can we say nerd? Yeah I am.
OUCH! You must have been running pretty hard at that pole to get a concussion AND to have broken your glasses so hard! Thank goodness it didn't get your eyeball! OH MAN!
ohh...my!!! i totally thought it was Kev who got them. Sorry...that sucks!! i expected it to be him cause he's always getting hurt. At least its small so hopefully you wont have a big scar!!!
I love how at the end of the post you were like "Shucks I can't work out"... haha. I love when the Dr. tells me that!
Braden says "ouch"
This is going to be one of those stories Kevin will tell your kids with a big smile on his face when they ask "mom how did you get that scar?" I walked into a parking meter when I was at EFY no stitches or concussion though. Matt loves to tell that story and he wasn't even there :)
OUCH! That really sucks. Sorry =(
