I bet!! LOL

coming from the boy who is all of 12.

Hey now. Just because I'm closer to being 12 than I am to being your age...well, I'd probably need to check my math on that, but it may be true!

I've heard stories about the 70s though, sounds like fun times.

RR Jen is in her 70s? Who knew?

DRINK!!

Just happened: I'm working on the agenda for tomorrow's meeting and meant to reply to an email from our BSA officer (who is quite possibly the most prim and proper lady you've ever met) with "Got it." I typoed the space and sent "Go tit."

If she tries to kick someone's face off in response to this, it better be yours and not mine!

When I was an executive assistant at this bank, I was talking with the pres/CEO while he was at a conference in Vegas. Right before I hung I told him to have fun and then said, "Love ya"! I slammed the phone down on the receiver hoping he didn't hear it and I was mortified that I'd just said that! Of course, there were two other co-workers eavesdropping within earshot who still give me a hard time about this. Ugg.

Hate that one, it's gotten me a few times. So far I've caught it before hitting Send.

Fell off the sidewalk yesterday while walking the dogs. It's not like I haven't walked that stretch 1,000+ times since I've lived in the same place for 8 years....

Just explain that you are merely expressing your support for breeast cancer awareness month.

At the race last weekend, I was walking up to get my race bib and packet along with 600 other racers and stepped in a gopher hole, rolled my ankle and hit the ground like a sack of potatos.
Fortunately only about 599 of them noticed.

How does one 'fall off' of a sidewalk? Like the curb? Were you texting?

Basically what BB1 described, I hit the edge with one foot and my ankle rolled and off I went into the grass.

The thing to do with that is to roll, pop up and then serpentine as though you are evading fire from a sniper and then hide behind a very thin tree or stop sign!
People wont think you are clumsy then, just crazy.

While running through my neighborhood I slipped and fell on a wet sidwalk where a man had blown his grass clippings. He kept on mowing while I sit there covered in mud in grass.

My husband got me a Road ID braclet to while running because I have a tendancy to trip and fall.

I worked at a large bank in Louisville, KY for many years. One afternoon when leaving work after a snowstorm (this was back in the early 80's), I came out of the door and a rug had been placed on the sidewalk - that had been covered by snow. My shoe went under the rug and my toes were on top of the rub and I went down - and immediately bounced back up. My co-workers laughed at me because they said I was up before I hit the ground. I was very embarrassed by the entire situation.

Hard to do the tuck-and-roll with a leash and two dogs on the other end... but I managed okay.

VWgirl21, I'm trying not to laugh, but the image of you sitting covered in grass clippings is making me chuckle. I'm glad you were okay, of course.

This reminds me of falling off my bike in the middle of an intersection in a neighboring tiny town. I am pretty sure I said "well, that was graceful" rather loudly.

Also, I need to stop replying to myself in emails.

what would make this better is if while he was still cutting the grass he got close enough to shower you with fresh clippings, sort of like a snow globe but with grass

Only open attachments from people you trust.

When you're working away, with music going, and someone extremely conservative (grandmotherly type) walks in while some gangsta thug type song is playing. It's on Pandora, it doesn't belong on the station it's playing, but I'm out of skips, so whatever...but you can't explain that away to someone like her.

Oh well.

Knowing those BSA types, she probably filed an ARS on you.
