So quite often I'll bump into chairs, knock my head into things, stub my toes into stuff, etc.

A lot of the time I "side swipe" stuff. Grazing chairs and things, partially bumping into things, or causing stuff that's near the edges of tables to come crashing to the floor.

I think that's called "dyspraxia"? Although I don't have trouble with riding bikes or operating motorized equipment. I'm also fine with moving around and manipulating objects. I suppose I am kinda crap at catching objects?

I'm guessing it's a pathfinding thing where my subconscious has a mediocre way of keeping track of objects around me.

This is probably part of the reason I can get really lost in 3D video games, especially the older ones.

Metal of Honor: Rising Sun was 👌especially👌 irritating, especially with that Guadalcanal level. That one was pure ASS.

Locating specific map locations from walkthrough videos is quite difficult.

Other then the annoyance of bumping into things, I don't think about it.

Unless, of course, someone (my mom), goes all "uGh! WaTcH wHeRe YoU'rE gOiNg!"

That instantly pisses me off.
