…but it WAS the sound of my big, fat forehead WHACKING AGAINST the sharp, unforgiving metal corner of the evil hanging frame that holds up the television & VCR in the far end of my classroom.
A brief pause as we wait for the ECHOING MOAN — which peaked with a rather yelping “OUCH” at the moment of impact — to fade away…
There was pain…there were gasps…and there was ME…nearly slicing open my forehead, and now nursing a wonderful, red goose-egg. I suppose I should be grateful that it only bled a little!
* SIGH *
First, my aching back…now, my throbbing head…tomorrow, I will no doubt suffer some drastic and sudden amputation of the arm or the leg. Otherwise, the symmetry would be incomplete…
Bloody karma! I shall have my revenge on YOU as well…as soon as I figure out HOW to wage war with higher powers…and as soon as this damn (and very LITERAL) headache disappears.
Bloody karma…!
