I'm a clutz/moron

[eeboater]

So I'm in IL this week closing down our Naperville Branch. I just got back from the strip mall that is next to our office here. Bought meself some tasty chinese food.<br /><br />Well, as I was climbing the steps to go in the side door of our building here, my brain sent a command to my foot/leg mechanism:<br /><br />"RAISE 6 INCHES"<br /><br />Foot/leg mechanism did not obey stated order and only raised 4 inches. Caused foot to get caught on next step sending whole body tumbling forward.<br /><br />Luckily, my chinese food was placed in a handy non-recyclable styrofoam container!!! Since the 1 lb of fried rice had kind of gel'd together with the General Tso's Chicken, the lunch made it out unscathed!<br /><br />Course my pride did not make it out unscathed. And I expect much ragging to be occuring from fellow members here so I might as well kiss the ole' pride ADIOS (as the illegals will say)!! <br /><br />Sean

EE I do that sort of thing on a daily basis.....dont worry about it.<br /><br /><br />For example last week at work, I was walking under a rack that just so happens to be at forehead height. I hit my head on it pretty hard at least once a month, its not like it wasnt the same height as the first time. <br /><br /><br />I have tripped up stairs with food too, mine was with a fresh hot pizza..............dont think I have to say that the food didnt survive.

I always just blame it on "new glasses". True I've had the same pair for 5 years but the excuse still works. Sometimes you can even get some symathy.

Re: I'm a clutz/moron

Reminds me of an all you eat italian place My ex and I would frequent the early years. She would encourage me to fill up a plate of spegettie (sp?) to take home after so. Well, when I went to place it in the floor of the car , all slipped out of the box and into the floor....only it was a total loss....I had to toss it in a nearby shopping cart and hall azzz to avoid further embarassment but we still laugh today at the spectical that we made then as poe folks..

I used to work at a place that had a small landing at the base of the stairs. One of my coworkers spilled silicon oil and wiped it up with a rag. The admin people were slipping and sliding for a month after that.
