: an upright piece forming the side of a door opening
"Upright piece forming the side of a door opening," my bum! When I picked the dogs up from doggy camp they were so excited to be leaving with me that they rushed the door together like squirming dervishes and caught me in a tired moment of unbalance.
I found out exactly what "door jamb" means. I ended up with bruises on my face, neck, wrist, arm, and left hip. I have marks on my neck from the links in my necklace. Very attractive.
The worst part was the damage to my watch, since I will heal. It gouged my wrist and the band looks like it went through the garbage disposal. Poor little Rolex.

Poor little Rolex.. Now.. if you had purchased a TIMEX, it would still be ticking :-) Kidding.. I know what you're saying. My wife got me a really nice Seiko (not even close to a Rolex.. but..) I'd try to only wear it when I knew I'd not be around tools (hard one for me) but I STILL ended up stratching the cystal. The last one came on the second day of this academy..... It somehow dropped from my pocket as I locked the car door and got run over by one of my classmate's cars. It didn't hold up like the one that got run over in the Timez commercial.. thats for sure. Sorry you got so bruised up.. hope you're feeling ok..

I am more concerned about you than I am about the Rolex. I am so sorry you got hurt bad. I sure hope you are using the ice pack for all the bruises. If you get any swelling, please seek medical attention. I pray there is nothing serious.

Gosh! Sounds like that door jamb beat you up!
Take care of yourself sweetie!

Suz! First the white blood count goes haywire, now the dogs beat you up. That 5 pounds wasn't all white cells I hope.
I am sporting stitches in the back of my right leg from my most recent trip to the mole remover. There is a brilliant purple 5-inch circle with the puckering skin in the middle. When I picked up my kids from my dad's house last night, the Springer greeted me with her usual relish and scratched the front of my leg (again). I held her by the collar so she wouldn't try to prematurely pull the stitches out. It hurts just sitting. I can't imagine we'd be friends after she ripped my leg open. I woulda had to door jamb her.
ouch!! You poor thing!!
Yeouch! I know what this is like. Every time one of my cats trips me up I wonder if "this time" is gonna be the fall that breaks my neck. Get yourself some homeopathic Arnica Montana for pain & bruises. Hope you're feeling up to par soon. ¤Holly
Ouch! I haven't heard a story that painful since my friend Danny became a kite at the end of a young Labrador's leash.
