You know those two little kitchen cabinets above your refrigerator that you can't reach?

Well, I slid out the fridge to paint behind it this weekend and went to cut in the ceiling above the fridge.

Reached down to grab my paint can, stepped up on my step stool and stood up real fast to catch my balance, and rammed the left side of my skull smack dab on the corner of the cabinet.

I got this dent in the side of my head now and it hurts like a mother ****er. Been dizzy and disoriented ever since.

Funny, I always pictured myself going out sitting in a McDonald's parking lot in my car with a half eaten burger dropped down the front of my shirt and a large diet pepsi spilled in my lap.

It has you spelling weird too.....and some of your letters apprear as stars...no worry though 'bout that as I know what they are and kinda think most anybody would know. Seems kind of silly that they are like stars but it could be worse I guess- they could be like ugly squiggles with fake firework type stuff...anyway, don't go to McDonalds today.

You might have a concussion, dude. You should probably see a doctor about that.

You might have a concussion, dude. You should probably see a have someone else drive you to a doctor about that.

Corrected for safety.

Probably should go to the doctor. It's just, every time I go, I start feeling better while I'm sitting there in the waiting room, then I feel stupid for going.

@Spacey: I haven't been to McD's in quite some time. I haven't left the house except to make a quick run to Lowe's for supplies in 3 weeks.

Gotta scoot ... if I suddenly disappear from the forum, you know why. Heh.

I hope you don't disappear. 

Don't #### with head injuries. 

Get to the Dr. no matter how you're feeling Bub.

Wise werdz from Da Bapu.

Yeah... bub, dude, fella, guy, broheim... don't mess with the noodly stuff. Get wifey to drive you to wherever you can get checked out. If you hit a corner it could also be some swelling inside the skull... and that ain't good. 

Take care.

Having played sports for years I can definitely tell you that the one to decide if you had a slight concussion or not is NOT you.  You see it all the time, someone gets their bell rung and thinks they're fine.  Plus, there can be effects that don't show up for a while.  Always better to get checked.

And now, one of my all time favorite commercials about this subject!  The way his expression changes cracks me up everytime I see it.  See it yourself HERE!
