I tend to hit my shoulders walking through doorways, I'm also always hitting my head in some way. I have a few burn blisters and a cut on my pinky finger from washing a knife the wrong way. Yes I'm a klutz.

Let's see.. since I haven't been working I don't have as many as I usually would, but I have a chunk taken out of my finger(putting an ink sensor in a t-shirt), a few healing scratches, and a big bruise on the back of my arm.

I sometimes get distracted walking and kinda stumble on my own feet as well.

I did that earlier...ouch...my right knee should look awesome by tomorrow. Rolling Eyes My total count seems to be 3 right now, an all-time low for me, usually it's higher.

As a kid I used to trip all the time and get knee scrapes, etc.

My parents had me do judo for a while, and now I don't fall at all and rarely bump into things or drop things.

My motor coordination is still bad, I've just gained awareness, a better stance, a more solid grip, ... Wink

haha, awesome question... only 3 atm, but yeah I'm always bruised (currently i'm covered in red scratch marks and bug bites ALL OVER, even blood from them... stupid mosquitoes >.<)

Haha... I walk into everything >< I walked into 3 things today, or maybe like 5... or so... somehow got hit by the car door AND the wall of my house on either side of me at once... walked into my car, walked into a door frame... a wall, a table... yep, clumsiness ftw XD

I don't have any bruises because I don't bruise easily, but I am missing several chunks of skin and have no idea what happened to them. I also smack my head on way more stuff than someone that's my height logically should (I'm quite short.)

At the moment I have 3 bruises that I can see and several cuts, scratches and missing bits of skin. Some I know how I got but most I do not...they just appear...

I always walk into things, misjudge distances and topple things over. I am a klutz!

Right now it's not so bad, which probably means I'm due for a few zingers on my legs, but often I have several noticeable bruises on my legs and at least one hip.

If anyone can recommend a good durable concealer for body use, I'd appreciate it. There are work settings in which knee-length skirt-suits and light nylons are de rigeur, and a few times people have asked me if I'm a mtn biker.

Four bruises although the one on my head is from a seizure so its not clumsiness but the others are from generally being a klutz like tripping and banging my arm on a wall, dropping a mustard bottle on my foot and loosing my balance on my desk chair and hitting my arm on the desk.
