I may fall down but I will rise

Monday Memory

So I am told sometimes that I am an idiot, and also asked if I had been dropped on my head when I was a child. To all those rude people who ask such ridiculous question I have your answer and it is yes.

I know what your thinking, and no my mother and father are not irresponsible parents. I wasn’t technically “dropped” persay, but more like fell. As in I fell out of my crib.

My dad had been working 48 hours straight at the Bartow County EMS station(for those of you who dont know what that is, click here) leaving my mother at home to take care of me while he made some mullah. Well, to put a long story short my mother was WORN OUT. So as I went to sleep for my nap she laid me in my crib where I slumbered while she took a shower……..so she thought.

While my mother was out of my room I preceded to climb up that wooden prison of comfort and eventually turned it over. My mother heard the extraordinarily loud thump coming from my room and scurried to find a poor, hurt, whiny, defensless, pretty, handsome, sexy etc. boy named marcus crying on the floor. She took me to the emergency room to make sure there was no damage to my head and other bodily functions, and our psycho doctor wanted to call DEFAX!!!!!!!!! Thankfully that did not happen and I still live, looking mighty amazing I must say.

So if you didnt think you knew anyone who fell on their head as a child, now you do!
