This may sound funny, but at the time it wasnt...at...all. I was trying to calm down and stop my mind from racing at around 2am Sunday night. I was juuuust about to fall asleep and Bella (see her somewhat innocent pic above) must have decided to walk across my face. I jumped, she shot a good 2 feet into the air...I remember opening my eyes and screaming and seeing her underbelly above my head. When she jumped though, she had a claw in my freakin lip!!! So I toss her aside to grab my face. My lip was bleeding all over my hands. I ran into the bathroom and it wasnt too awful, but it was swelling immediately. I put hydrogen peroxide on it and I think that helped.
Then I couldnt sleep because I felt like I might have some horrible foot in mouth disease. But I'm ok today, no swelling and all is normal, just a bit tired.

That reminds me of when I was sitting in the recliner in my underwear with a fresh cup of coffee balanced on the arm of the chair. Then Sandy Dog came running and jumped on the cup which spilled onto my lap. Talk about "getting hot." That's hot.
Toxoplasmosis, baby.
Why couldn't you sleep? Are you better now? Ice is always a good thing for swollen lips (or knees) - put a couple of pieces in a wet wash cloth and hold it on there if this happens again. The cold will help reduce the swelling and will also numb you so you don't feel the pain as much.
Hope all is better - the lip, the stress and the sleeping.
