Why, yes, I _am_ a klutz! May have something to do with not having the world's best attachment to my physical self. Being tired makes it worse, too.
I regularly walk into things, knock things over (although I often catch them), elbow people, and forget how to move to have specific things (like standing up, or getting out of bed - I have to wake up enough to not cause major damage if I'm sharing a bed and _not_ on the outside edge) happen.
Sharing a small space with me is dangerous, especially when I'm tired, because you might get elbowed, kicked, kneed, or bonked in the head with my head. Some of this, I even do while I'm sleeping (I'm actually impressed my cat _ever_ sleeps with me, and that I've ever been able to sleep with people every night - although regularly sleeping with someone does make it much easier for me to sleep, and therefore reduces my danger level).
Seriously. I'm a huge klutz; I just have enough awareness of it that most of the time it's not immediately obvious. But it does mean that, for example, I bonk my head on things _often_ - and while everyone nearby winces, I may not even notice. I find random unexpected bruises (mostly on my legs) all the time, from walking into things.
*shakes head*
