slipped on a wet floor and fell face first towards the hardwood dining table. my hand managed to catch the side of the table with about 10cm to spare before I smashed my forehead. Suspect with the speed it woulda at least knocked me out. Sad to report I neither saw the light nor had my life flash before my eyes.

Oh no! Good save.

I also stepped on a wet patch. It was cat vomit. I didn't slip, so I guess that's a win.

I'll be honest I THINK I'd prefer the cat puke, but its a very small margin.
