So the baby starts crying about 1:30 this morning, I swing my legs over the bed and hop straight out, determined to get him changed n fed before he wakes up my wife... ok with me so far?
So there is something I forgot to mention, see, I was sleeping on my side, and somehow my left leg went totally asleep...
Ok so with that bit of information, I swung my legs over the bed, lept to my feet only to have my left foot totally slide out from under me...
Imagine a big fat guy jumping out of bed, intending to do good, and has a chevy chase moment... Still with me?
So instead of just falling down, my leg slides out behind me, pitching me forward where I smack my head and chest off the bed. That doesn't sound to bad right? Well the bad part is I've now done the splits which I've never been able to do, thumped into the bed, and immediately rebound backwards into the closet doors. In the process the leg that slid under the bed in my amazing feats of agility is whipped backwards with the rest of me, smacking and scraping my knee.
So instead of sneakily, stealthily and without waking my wife, I've totally failed. Not only am I cursing a blue streak the baby is now screaming in horror. Lil guy must have witnessed my stupid human trick and was scared that I was going to still come over to pick him up. No way he wanted my clumsy butt to do that. Wife got up and made sure I was ok and then laughed and fed the baby.
Here I am hoping she sorta forgot the incident when she gets up this morning
