Saturday, we gave Annie a bath (When Annie get’s a bath she gets very hyper and excited. She runs around very fast with checks flapping) and so Ben took her in the backyard and was playing soccer with her. He kicked the ball; she would attack it (at full speed) and bring it back. In the back yard area there is a small hill by a back fence, so I was standing up by the fence watching as Ben and the dog played. Annie was running full speed past me when Ben kicked the ball and it hit the fence and rebounded forward. Annie tried to change directions to get the ball, but in her hyper full speed, turned right into me and PLOW!! She took my legs right out from under me (hit by a 60 lb dog running full speed). I flew until to the air and landed in a shocked heap on the ground. (Don’t worry Annie got the ball!) I just laid there on the ground trying to figure out if I was broken for a couple minutes while Ben roared with laughter. (He is so sad he didn’t have a camera.) I was fine but as the day went on I kept finding bruises and sore spots from getting wrestled by a dog. I still have not determined what lesson I should have learnt from this…incident. Watch where you’re standing during soccer games?

there's no lesson to learn beyond: annie is a not-so-smart bomb. like a cruise missile that's always hitting the civilian targets on accident.
