Morning peeps!

After managing to burn myself badly this morning, i wanted to know if you guys ever manage to hurt yourself badly, whilst still half asleep and getting ready for work?

I was ironing, wearing just a pair of traccy bottoms, my GF brought in a cup of tea, and placed it on the ironing board whilst i was waiting for the iron to heat up.
I then decided it would not be a good idea to leave the tea on the ironing board, and went to move it to the table infront of the board. I picked up the cup, and leaned over the board, only to realise that i had just placed my side directly against the edge of the (now hot) iron!!

I have a burn which blistered instantly, its about 3.5 inches long, and over 5mm wide :(

Has anyone else managed anything quite so silly whilst in that Zombie morning state?
 
I've woken up so tired that I just couldnt see, walked into walls and things, bumped my head and done stupid things like that - But I've never been badly injured :( Hope your wounds heal
 
I jumped out of bed (I'm talking about standing on the mattress and leaping) and my foot landed on a plug that was prong side up. I wasn't injured but much pain was had.

edit:

For the last few nights I've been waking up with my right arm knuckle side down parallel to the side of my head. It's really weird but when I wake up I can barely move it it's so dead :(

i fell out of a top bunk bed onto a plug, 3 pronged cut on my back

the worst plug injury i've ever had
 
Must have been kind of sleep 'working out'? because I woke up and had pushed myself up in a press-up stance, and of course I woke up as I came crashing down and gashed the side of my eye on the headboard, that wasnt pleasant.
 
I trump all your measley injuries with my own injury.

Only a few mornings ago i managed to kick the leg of my bed with my second and third toes....do you know how much pain is involved in that...A LOT.

I threw myself onto the bed and buried my face in my pillow and kinda screamed until the pain subsided.

TOE BED injuries are the very worst type of injury...especially on a morning.
 
Halfway through replacing the carpet on the landing/stairs, gets delivered tomorrow... needless to say I put my heel on the gripper track yesterday morning. Not a good start to the day.
 
Keep them coming people :p

As mentioned before but not really an injury, I just bounce off the walls down the corridor on the way to the shower :o
 
The other night I put some shelves up in the lounge, the following morning (Half asleep) I went to plug the iron in and cracked my head on the corner of the newly put up shelf, cut me head.
 
Never really happens in the mornings, most of my burns and injuries tend to come from attempting to cook while drunk.
 
The other day i woke up but nobody told my legs this, i took one step out of bed and my legs still asleep gave way beneath me causing my face to have some nice intimate time with the floor
 
Got woke up by City Link a couple of weeks ago at 7:30 am! When I heard the knock I ran to the top of the stairs and slipped catching my foot on a couple of steps. It's sprained and it still hurts.
