Once in the middle of the night, I was coming from the bathroom and tripped over my full-size Springbok and face planted against the corner of my dresser.
I think I passed out and don't know for how long. I just remember waking up and going what the hell. I went to bed & when I got up in the morning I could see I put a gash 1/4 inch above my upper teeth.
Little bit lower and I would've knocked out all my upper front teeth. I got some motion sensor lights that I have at the foot of the bed and in the bathroom so when I get up at night, it lights the room up a little bit. I thought about getting a first alert or something since I live alone. The motion lights are a lifesaver and they're real cheap.
