Would listening to books be easier?

This is not the only time time I've tripped over something in the past few years. Most of the time I've caught my balance, but on the couple of occasions I did fall, I managed to turn it into more of a tumble than a fall. I knew
I was going down, so I tucked, rolled, and got right back up with no injury. No problem, until Saturday. I'm thinking that maybe the two halves of my brain were having differing opinions as to the best course of action, and since it happened so quick they didn't have time to work it out between themselves. Although I'd like to shoot whichever side it was that thought breaking the fall with my face was a good idea,
