Bizzare Injuries

Last night I managed to do the impossible. I injured myself in the most unusual way I've ever heard of. I actually managed to throat myself with the vacuum cleaner.

You heard me right, I throated myself with the vacuum cleaner.

Horray for bending the laws of possible reality! Ok, so it went down like this. I was out of smokes and wanted to run to the store to pick up another pack. I knew that my backpack was in the closet so without turning the light on, I reached in to grab the backpack. It was about 1:30am, so it was really pretty dark as the only light was the monitor on my laptop. What I failed to see was the handle of the vacuum cleaner as it is black. It impacted right on the left of my voicebox hard enough to knock the wind out of me. After making sure it didn't do any permanent damage, I sniffled for a bit and then went and got my smokes.

So in case anyone is wondering, no, nobody throat punched me, I did it to myself.

Oh! I also started playing this game that Jim got. It's called Aion. Apparently it's China's answer to WoW. I know I'm pathetic, but their character creation process is pretty neat and my character is nauseously adorable. :)

And now that I've revealed my sad and pathetic dorkdom... yeah, I'm going to go hide. I've spent so much time complaining about WoW, but at least this game has something WoW doesn't... a timer. After a few hours, it won't allow you to get xp or level anymore. It actually tells you to go do something else for at least 5 hours before it will let you play again. I like that... you can't blow your life away playing the game. Nice, go China!
