Whenever I hear about people getting a concussion, I picture a bad a car accident, or a tough football game. Maybe they've fallen from a distance and landed on their head, or perhaps fell on their bike and hit their head on a rock.
Apparently, all I have to do to get one is WALK into a pole. Which, embarrassingly enough, is exactly what happened on Saturday. There I was, minding my own business in Hobby Lobby, browsing the aisles to help my friend find a plant arrangment, and I decide to turn to the aisle to my right. My head, however was turned to the left to look at what was down that aisle. Then, SMACK. Right into a cement pole.
WHO puts a pole in the middle of a narrow aisle?!?! Granted, I should have looked to see where I was going, but come on!!!!! At the very least, pad the dang thing, for idiots like me that come along.

I'm so sorry - that is very sad! I would also be the one to a)walk right into a pole, and b)get a concussion without a great story!
Hope you're feeling better soon!
I think what I love most about being an adopted Dana is the Dana sense of humor. Seriously, great story and I hope you are feeling better :)
Well and my husband is pretty cool too :)
So sad. But I do have to thank you for the laugh...sorry it had to be at your expense! And thanks again for going to hobby lobby with me...you guys helped me so much! I'm sad we missed the campfire...I love that picture Matt took..little Mr. Professional photographer...who knew?!
You ARE Phil's sister...
So sorry, hope you feel better!
Oh no! What a stupid place for a pole...I hope your heads ok!
Dear Maryann,
I will try to...move...next time...?
Love,
Cement pole
Oh, I'm sorry! I've had a few concussions myself and they are no fun! And it's a good thing we all walk into poles eventually so I don't even think anything of it! Feel better!
Maryann, let's SUE!! We're gonna be R$I$C$H !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is so sad and yet so funny! Remember, the sadder the story, the funnier it is.
My boy got one last Monday at football practice. So I know what your going through.
Check our blog for the funny details.
