Nopers, I was trying to lift him over a brook as we had been out hiking.
I told him specifically to sit still and let me do teh work, and instead he jumps as I was picking him up, right into my left eyesocket with the top of his head.
I'd had someone try to skip a rock off a lake and instead skipped it off my browridge just over my left eye when I was younger.
(When people see me in person, they usually comment on the fact that there's a chunk missing out of my left eyebrow, as in there's a bald spot. The scar has since healed well, but the bald spot in the eyebrow will always be there. Yes, I get self-conscious about it at times.)
When that rock hit me many years before, I remember two things from the second it hit: The rock was humming as it came in, and after it hit the world went black and white for awhile.
Next thing I remember being aware of: I was sitting next to a campfire and vicously stoking the coals with a stick and babbling nonsense.
So, fast forward a decade and I'm getting slammed in the same spot with a skull-noggin.
Made me dizzy and loopy for awhile.
Beforehand, I had excellent balance and repeatedly crossed streams by walking on fallen trees many feet above the ground.
Afterwards, I have terrible balance.
Yes, before it is asked, I have had a CAT scan done and they found "Nothing out of the ordinary" that would explain the headache.

You had a cat scan that revealed nothing out of the ordinary? *L*
That diminishes my trust in cat scans.
Maybe they scanned your knee.....

and babbling nonsense...I've heard from the medical community that you do that a lot...
