Thu, 05 Mar 2009 21:44:32 +0000 http://www.mediocreathlete.com/?p=252#comment-112 A few years ago I was out on a hike with a friend and suddenly a light bulb went on in her head and she suddenly announced, "Wait, I just NOTICED! YOU TRIP ALL the time! But you keep GOING, so no one ever NOTICES." Here's the thing, I trip so much I don't even notice anymore! If I stopped everytime I tripped, I'd have to stay in bed every morning...

Here’s the thing, I trip so much I don’t even notice anymore! If I stopped everytime I tripped, I’d have to stay in bed every morning…

Those "walk-tripping down the sidewalk" stutter steps are pretty lame, too. You always make a big show of looking behind you and expecting some giant ridge sticking out as if to show random strangers that you're not just a klutz.

The best part was I was holding a Iced Grande Soy Latte when it happened. That went flying and I landed in a puddle of ice/coffee, just in time for some adorable guy to come walking down the stairs. After realizing the mess laying below him was an actual person, he threw out an "Hey, you ok?" To which I managed to somewhat look up from my prone position and go with a huge smile, "Oh YEAH, totally fine!" All the while thinking, 1. Will I actually be able to get up? 2. That bruise is NOT going to be pretty. 3. I really hope I never run into this guy ever again... Also, hi, I have you beat. I’ve fallen walking UP a flight of stairs.

Running up stairs is like an accident waiting to happen. Oh well, at least I'm banging up my shins in the name of charity! I know I’m going to get a face full of stairwell.

Be sure to avoid introducing your knees to any of the stairs though. ;) It looks like you’re doing pretty good on donations. Be sure to avoid introducing your knees to any of the stairs though. ;)
