Help, I’ve Fallen and Can’t Get Up…

If you have known me for awhile, then you know just how clumsy I am. I fall all the time and fortunately I have learned to laugh at myself. The bad part is that once I start laughing, I have a really hard time gaining control again. Saturday, Jake and Diana invited me to go to the mall with them. We stopped by my dorm so that I could pick up my purse. It just so happened to be a little rainy Saturday which means slippery floors. I stepped into the main door of the dorms and I busted my butt! Of course, no one was around to see my clumsy moment. I laughed hysterically. I laughed all the way to my room and all the way to the car. When I got in the car, Jake asked me if I fell. He knows me so well! Are you laughing?

I just thought that since it was Monday, you might all need a good laugh. I know its not as funny unless you actually see the fall but just imagine it! I will probably have plenty of more stories like this one to write about since falling has become a normal part of my life.

    Yeah, Jake saw you laughing when you were walking toward the car, and his first words were, “I bet she fell…”

    Well…instead of laughing at your clumsiness…you could be laughing at the memory of a certain night when we cleared the furniture out of the room to do our own routines to Newsie’s. Yep…I bet you’re laughing now.

    Falling can be so graceful, however, I usually fall on the ice and snow up here. That fall is usually a fall/skate. the only thing you can do is laugh.
