Dozing off on the F train Saturday night, the train jerked, and, mid-slumber, so did my head. Unlucky for me, I was sitting in the corner of a three-seater right next to...a pole. At first it just hurt as you might expect your eye bone(?) to hurt after being slammed into a piece of metal. A few moments later I noticed there was a little bump next to my eye, but didn't really think much of it, as the pain had subsided as quickly as it came. My glasses were unharmed, so I was happy about that. Went back to dozing off, got up at my stop, and went to bed all fine and dandy. The next morning, I looked like this:

Two days later, it's still purple and it hurts when I squint or close my eyes too tightly...What a jerk!! Anyhow, if at least one of you gets a good laugh outta this story, then I think putting myself in harm's way was all worth it.
