Black Eye
A week ago today, Doc and I were laying on the bed watching TV. I don’t know if he heard a noise or I moved, but he whipped his head around and slammed it into my eye socket. I hear something go crack. I thought he’d broken my eye socket bone area. A half inch to the left and he would have broken my nose. I went to the bathroom to see the damage, and there was a trail of blood down my face. The eye socket bone had broken through the skin. It surprisingly didn’t hurt that much (after the initial slam), no headache, and it only hurt when I touched it. After a week, it’s nearly all healed. It isn’t my first injury, and it won’t be my last. (it’s the second time Doc’s given me a black eye. He’s all limbs and no coordination!)

A few days later, I had to go to the store for groceries and dog treats (yes, he injured me and I got him toys). I didn’t remember until afterwards that I had this gash on my face. I can’t imagine what people were thinking, but really, would I say anything to someone with a black eye?
