So I went to Goodwill this morning to buy a picture frame as part of a gift. I was crouching down to look at a frame, and suddenly this very hard, very heavy thing lands on my head. Turns out it was a heavy, metal, corner shelf case that had fallen out of a woman's shopping cart. Management was called. I got a chair and an ice pack. There happened to be an off-duty nurse in the store who felt my head for injury--no cuts but a lump coming up. I was a little uncertain on my feet but eventually was okay to drive home.

I'm home now, putting ice on the hurt spot (which still hurts). My pupils are stable and both the same size. My temp's okay so far, so I'm guessing there's no concussion, but I'm feeling a little odd in the tummy. Maybe it's just the stress and upset.

One way or another, the incident has thrown off all my plans for this morning, and I'm trying to catch up.

Not a happy girl.

Yep. The store manager had the presence of mind to collect all the information, and when I calmed down enough to be coherent, the perp woman and I exchanged information as well. I'm at the hotel now, with an ice pack on my head. All's well for the moment.

Oi. I hope this is truly nothing.

Well, my goose egg is still sore (really sore), but I'm functioning within normal parameters (except for, you know, my usual neuroses).
