Coffee, please

So last night I need to do some laundry. I stuff a bunch of clothes into my laundry bags. One is blue fabric, the other is white mesh. I toss both bags over my shoulder, grab my detergent and head up the hill to the laundry room.
The door to the laundry room has one of those pushbutton simplex locks. I have both hands full, so I need to put something down to enter the code. So I swing my white mesh laundry bag back from over my shoulder towards the ground.
Past my ear....
(See where this is headed?)
The mesh catches on the top ball of my industrial, snags it and the momentum of many pounds of laundry pops the ball right out! I can't see this at first. My first thought is "Fuck! I just tore my ear off!" My mind is full of nightmarish images of me crawling around in the dark parking lot looking for my ear. I touch it and I'm relieved to find out my ear is still attached. Perhaps I need a helmet...
