Ok, since everyone is talking about embarrassing spills, I can't

help but share this one. I took my kids to opening day for the movie

Spiderman. It was so crowded that I told them to wait and hold the

seats while I went and got popcorn. Well coming back into the

theatre, in my hands was a tray of 3 jumbo pops and a jumbo tub of

popcorn....and I tell you that I saw it before it happened. I fell,

on my face! The theatre got real quiet and all you could hear was me

saying " awww S@#$^ " . Everyone started laughing, my son came to my

rescue, helped me up and I took a bow. Now I am sure that when the

movie came out on video, people are saying " remember when we saw

this at the theatre and that woman fell on the stairs! " So not only

did I create a lasting memory for my children, but for the other

100+ people there!

Cheers,

I have to ask, did you save the popcorn?

At least your son came to help you. I do have to say that this subject has

caused me to walk around snickering all day, I guess just reliving things.

I know we are supposed to stay on the subject of cf. My bad. But, it is nice

to remember the lighter times.

Okay. I will tell you my most embarrassing fall as well. We were

visiting the Capitol in DC and I had one picture left on my roll of

film. I decide to run across the lawn and jump over a railing to

cross the street to get a picture of the Supreme Court Building.

Shortly after I began running my husband realized there was no way I

was going to safely jump the railing and he starts chasing after

me. I jump the railing and land on my back on the sidewalk as my

camera skids across the concrete. A busload of Asian tourists were

leaving their bus and were kind enough to come over and check on

me. I was such a jerk to them. I was so mad at myself for tripping

over the railing that I snapped at them, " I am fine! " , grabbed my

camera, took the picture and left. I have often wondered what they

must of thought of my American hospitality. My husband was worried

about me falling and mad that I was so rude to the nice tourists.

It was not a fun subway ride back to the hotel. Only in America!

OK here's one of my clumsy stories:

I was babysitting my sister's 3 children At her house and I had with me.

She and my nephew were both just under 3 at the time. My almost 12 year old

niece and her friend were there as well as my 5 year old niece. So the 6 of us

decided to walk to the store so the kids could get a treat. The 2 little kids

in a wagon with us pulling.

Well I had just recently lost a good bit of weight and was feeling snazzy. So I

wore my new jeans and my new clunky high heeled boots to my sister's house and I

didn't think anything about walking the 6 blocks to the store and back in my

clunky high heeled boots.

Well as we were walking along the tree lined street of the town 1/2 block away

from the store, my clunky heel caught on a bit of very uneven sidewalk and down

I went with a " Sh!t " and an ankle that I could tell was swelling even before I

hit the sidewalk. The kids were in a shocked sort of silence at first, but when

they saw I was ok they laughed a bit. So I hopped the rest of the way to the

store, had the kids go get their treats and then I hopped the 6 blocks home.

(naturally I had left my cell phone at my sister's house!) there was no way I

was getting in the wagon, they never would have been able to pull me home. Once

back at my sister's house we called my dad and hubby to get me to the ER and

watch the kiddos. I had a severely sprained ankle and was on crutches for 6

weeks. Needles to say I haven't put those shoes on since!!!
