I am an accident waiting to happen. I am so clumsy; I run into things constantly and this week was no different than normal.
Sometimes, just to be a little silly, I run and jump on Bryan expecting him to catch me (not always smart) and this sometimes leads to pain.
Earlier this week (on Tuesday), Bryan and I were talking in the kitchen. He was sitting on our bench next to our 
table and I decided to run and jump on him, while he was sitting on the bench. I backed up almost to the fridge and started toward him. I jumped up and … … most of me made the jump. Just not my leg. I slammed just below my knee into the bench and these pictures are what happened (please excuse the blinding white/non-shaved leg):
Now, you have to know I took this pictures Friday afternoon, so it had been quite a few days since the accident. Right after I hit the bench, I looked at my leg and it was already bruising. Wednesday, when I woke up, the bruise was way uglier and had a strange white center (my friend Andrea said that was a bad sign with bruises). Next time, I’ll have to watch out for stationary objects.

Ouch! Bruises seem to last forever too. June and I ran into each other (don’t ask me why we were each running in the house as fast as we could) and I had a bruise on my knee for three weeks. June didn’t even cry because she was so worried that she had hurt me (and it did hurt, but I was tough about it). I hope your leg heals quickly, but that is one MONSTER bruise.
At least you know where your bruise came from. I find big and small bruises that I can’t account for. Hopefully it will heal up so it won’t look to bad anymore.
That is one nasty bruise woman!
See what happens when you act like your 12. Now you’ve learned your lesson.
You are such a Spaz!! I was not even a tiny bit surprise to see this post! I love you the most though!
I think blame should be on Bryan for not always catching you.
Just kidding, get well soon.
I can’t believe you posted your nasty bruise! Sick!
