Well i know better but was trying to remove a shift knob that was stubbornly resisting. 2 good yanks got a little movements one more good yank, and pow right in the eye. I see it comming in slow motion. Cant shut my eye fast enough. A 5mm scrape on my cornia.
Fortunately my ophthalmologist worked me right in. The drops were great, but they will now allow it to heal so here i sit im my 914 self inflicted pain. I no remember tutlegirl making a note to self to "remove belly ring before sliding under car". Share you cautionary tales. |

The garage where I store the 914 has a security alarm that must been disarmed on the other side of the garage from the entry door. The light switch is over there, too, and IT IS DARK, especially having just come in from outside. In hurrying over there to turn off the alarm and trying to avoid running into the car, I ran into an open door for the bathroom. About put me down and left a week-long, very conspicuous and question initiating, shiner.
I've done worse under and around the cars I maintain there, the above was just the most recent. |
