As you are lunging forward to catch the can you knocked off the shelf, full hit right into the corner of the door at 90° to its cabinet...yeah, that's a lot of force into an immobile object. It won't be a full on black eye, but it got puffy enough fast that I figure the blood will pool in my eyelid. Not the first time, either. Well, first time of this scenario. I have clocked myself on a doorknob while cleaning. I'm special. I have a permabruise from how I haul myself from the pool. At least this one? I'll only put eyeshadow on the other eye and it'll look normal!
You know, my big sister could really beat the crap out of her. I mean, really really.

Because books.
Our freezer door swung open and caught me right in the temple once. Had a gorgeous shiner for a couple weeks. It felt very I Love Lucy-esque.

I love this picture of us because it's the only one of all four of us taken NOT in a facility of some sort: [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jagermeister! That's the evil stuff! I think there's some in my freezer because of a former friend. Or maybe I tossed it in a fit of pique.
I tend to only hit fixtures when I'm collapsing onto them. No horizontal impact.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

It's no dark and stormy, but it'll have to do.

That's a great picture, Kat. And boy do I envy your back strength, because I would be doubled over and whimpering.
