Me wrestling with a key in a PO box. I wiggle it and try to coax it out of the slot gently. After about 5 minutes of this I use a little bit more force, yanking on it a little. 10 minutes of this and I'm just pissed off. Cursing and making death threats to an inanimate object. Finally at my wits end I plant my feet and just start yanking, leaning back, all the while hurling insults and threats at this mailbox from Hell. Then, as if to deliver the punch line of some cosmic joke, when my feet are not properly braced, and I decide to yank the hardest the key just slides out with no resistance. All five feet and eleven inches of me go careening backwards into the wall that is at least 5 feet behind me, slamming into it hard enough to knock the wind out of me, I slid to the floor gasping for air. Once the stars and spots dissipated I laughed, and laughed, and laughed.

Thank God there were no cameras, or people around. I'm pretty sure I bruised a rib.

Imagination Rules the World.
