Whenever you're walking along feeling like you have the world on a string, you're bound to be taken down a notch. It's just karma, isn't it? We all have those stupid moments I suppose. But it doesn't stop them from making you feel like the most ridiculous person on the planet. I, of course had one of those moments today. In the grand scheme of my greatest hits in the dumb department, it wasn't even that bad. But this one stands out for my shear ineptitude at, apparently, walking.
Non-clumsy people can walk down the stairs and look at their cell phone without a great deal of difficulty. No mishaps or trips at all. Clumsy people like the group I find myself in, apparently take their eye off the prize for one split second and find themselves on the ground with no idea how they got there. That's what made today's fall so impressive. I managed to do it with no one around which is always a plus and managed to find my way back to my feet without anyone being the wiser. But I still have NO idea how I managed to find myself on the floor in the first place. One second I was up and the next I was on my knees. What the heck?
If I was going to be clumsy, awkward and all together ungainly, I should at least have a good story to explain it, shouldn't I? At least I had a super cute Minion band-aid to heal my wounds (and in case you were wondering, a scraped knee gets absolutely no sympathy), though I could have used one for my ego as well.
