Did you drop the knife on your foot?

Sort of. My boyfriend at the time was walking up behind me to hug me, so I was pushing the knife away from me/us on the counter. Instead of increasing the distance from us, however, the knife (also the largest we had on hand) spun and fell from the counter and happened to catch my ankle on the way down (and I was wearing shorts and no shoes).

Oh, good god. I'm glad to hear you're OK. I'm surprised I haven't had a similar close call.
