Death to the Flops!

O.K...so tonight I went to feed Natalie her dogfood, but uh...somehow while I was bringing the little scoop of dogfood to her dish over in the corner, the whole tub fell out of the cupboard and onto the floor...and yeah this was the result...oh man! I sure hada good laugh over it..you had to be there! And of all things, just a little earlier on in the day, after Mom went to work, I actually cleaned that whole floor with soap and water! I tell you its all in the name of Murphys law! I also gave Natalie her first bath from me this morning...that was quite interesting...but now I have a tale to tell... Yesterday I went with Mom to work and I took my crocheting with me and I did that for a while, but if you have been sitting for a few hours just crocheting, you need to get up and strech and just take a time out and do something different for a few minutes. So I asked Mom if there was anything I could do for her, and she told me that I could dust the windowsills for her where all the display pieces were sitting, and so I did. I also observed that the windows could use a bit of a cleaning... So I took the window cleaning stuff and papertowel..the Windex (thats what its called!) and so I went along on my merry way on the inside first, very cautiously and then I approached the outside, and started vigourously wiping them like it was nobodys business.... I was going on to the huge fron window and to reach the top of the front window, I thought I would take advantage of the bench infront of the window, and so I stood on it, and all of a sudden out of nowhere this "guy" says to me "a pretty girl like you shouldn't be washing windows, let me do that for you".. totally threw me for a loop (no punn intended). I turned around to look who was talking to me, and then my stupid flip flop got caught inbetween one of the cracks of the bench, and I then somehow gravity managed to pull me to the ground without my consent! And so needless to say, I was on my back, in the middle of the sidewalk, and that "guy" you know what he said? He said " Are you O.K.? If that would have been me, all of my bones would have been broken!" and he biked off...and i quickly got up and went my way cleaning those not so fun windows anymore! I pretended nothing happened, and I quickly looked in the window, to check that nobody saw me,(thankfully no one did! phew) and I then I checked out my wounds, to give myself a diagnosis... I found out that I only had a very mild case of the scraped elbow, and mild case of scrape knee. So nothing serious...although I do have a hematoma on my knee today and it does rather ache once in a while..but I will be fine, and thanks for asking..I hope you enjoyed that little story... Its a true story...that kind of story is hard to make up, and you know what else! You learned something new today! You know what that was? Besides finding out that yes even I am not perfect.. you now know why flip flops are called "flip flops" because, sometimes when you least expect it, those things "flip" you and then "flop" you onto your back...and now you also know why soon they are going to be know all over the world as the famous "Death Flop".....
