It's obviously my day to get beat up
This morning, when I was getting into the car, the door slammed just as my head was in striking distance. I took such a bad blow to the head that I got a black eye. I didn't even hit my eye.

Just now, I was going through a double door. Just as I pushed the door open, a woman pushed the other door open crushing my wrist bone. It didn't break, but it's swollen and bruising up.

I was in the gift shop immediately after that looking for some note cards. They were in a basket on the floor, so I was squatting down. A woman cruised past me knocking me over.

Should I wrap myself in bubblewrap and hope for the best? The day is only half over. :scared:

3. Jesus is punishing you
...just kidding. I've had days like that,too. Bubblewrap won't help,though. My advice: Just stay indoors

6. Just be sure to add two breathing holes.
The way this day has been going, somebody will probably come by and stuff a hornet's nest in one of them, so it's good to have a backup.

7. Lol.. bubblewrap, that's a cool idea
Maybe you should stay home tonight and don't go driving around. If you have to go out, take a Big Wheel.
