How NOT to Get in the Car in the Morning ....
So, remember the movie Ms Congeniality? and the scene where Gracie Hart ....is coming out of the airplane hanger after she has had every inch of her body scrubbed, plucked, waxed, cut, and painted??
Okay, as you recall, the folks waiting for her are AMAZED at the transformation....she is struttin her stuff towards the plane.....
AND ....down she goes!
My reality this am?! I'm toolin out of the house, feeling refreshed from a longer than normal sleep cycle last nite! (6 hours is unheard of for me!! )
I've got my nice cuddly brown sweater on that matches my nice tan skin, and a long ankle length leopard print
tight skirt with a slit so I can walk. I love this outfit because its not revealing but hugs every curve.
I also have on what I refer to as my hooker shoes.
4-in platform sandals that I also love. I enjoy being tall and in these Im like 6 ft ! teehee.......
so anywho.......Im balancing my briefcase, my purse, my coffee and opening the door. So far, so good. But then as I'm swinging my right leg into the vehicle, I fail to notice that my heel of my left shoe is precariously balancing on the edge of the dividing crack of the driveway.
Sure enough........I tilt to get in and WHOA!! down I go......briefcase flies one way....purse goes the other.........but I did manage to hang on to the coffee and not rip my skirt on the way down.
so....no injuries....unless you count my bruised ego..... I wonder how many neighbors witnessed this?? oh well..... I never said I was graceful !!

I have to admit that one of my faults is to laugh when I see people fall. I can't help it...Reading this I smiled a lot and have to admit that I would have laughed if I were a neighbor watching your spectacle. BUT, I'm glad you aren't hurt! ;)
FUnny ....everyone at work said the same thing...and the general consensus is that we (humans) tend to laugh when we see someone wipe out......some of us check first to see if they are okay?...others just cant hold back and laugh as they check on the person.....anywho.....thanx for the concern?? :) **scratches head**
Things like this used to happen to me all the time when wearing dress shoes. Glad you didn't hurt the shoes or skirt!
And thank goodness you saved the coffee!
Sorry, I missed that movie, but all the same, "Hello there!!" Hope things are better for you on this HNT morning!!
Ah there you are! My long lost sister! Hi nice to meet you, my name is grace! LOL Glad you didn't rip your skirt. Even Gladder you didn't get hurt! Stacie
it's a bit of a relief to hear someone else is as klutzy as i am. however, i would have slopped coffee everywhere, and not only riped my skirt, but probably skinned at least one knee, as well.
glad to hear you're okay.
