Tap. Tap.

I was arrogant last week. I was arrogant enough to believe I possessed the proper motor skills to open a door.

So confident was I in this capacity, that I placed all of my weight on my toes and leaned in to the garage door I was trying to open.

And so when my hand slipped and I fell forward, my head made this soft unpredictable and unassuming noise as it collided with the door that remained closed: Tap. Tap.

Twice, because my forehead ricocheted ever so slightly backwards before it moved forward a second time.

It's odd, because you LOOK very graceful. ;)

I hope you're all right, sweetie.

LOL. Aaaah if only you could see me move in real time...bumping into things, tripping over others, dropping what's left of the rest ;)

Am ok, darlin'. Thanks for asking!

Were you testing your head like a melon, tapping it twice?

*tap tap* "yup, brain is still in there and ready for more education."

Ugh, Mo, I wish I had something intelligent to report as to the 'why' of my actions...but alas, no such thing!

Maybe I'll just use that anyway?
