Clutz Extraordinaire

Ok, I have to be the clutziest person on the face of the earth.  *sigh*  

Last night, I was walking back from the kitchen to sit at the computer.  I stepped and suddenly found myself slipping on...nothing!  That's right, nothing.  I went down like a ton of bricks.  Bad enough I embarrased myself, but I hit the floor so hard, I woke up my oldest son!  So of course, he comes running out, scared as hell, wondering what I had done this time!  (He knows me enough to know I hurt myself, somehow! lol)

Anyways, turns out I hit my ribs and arm on the wooden part of the arm of the chair.  No biggie, sore but not hurt.  But then I saw my leg.  Sheesh.  I now have a bruise on the inside of my calf right where the knee bends a little bit smaller in size than a saucer-plate.  No way of sleeping good with a bruise there, or being comfy sitting in chairs.  I think I either hit it on the couch or ottoman (small living room, not a lot of space)  Oh well, at least it'll be gone in a week or 2 (or 3 or 4...lol).

My kids were laughing at me this morning, not believing I slipped on air.  Though I still think there was water or a piece of plastic that Karma must've been playing with.  Dumb cat, that's what I get for having a black cat in my house. 

So, I've been icing it and taking a few ibuprofen.  It's not so sore today, but it'll be fun getting around for while.  Now, if I can just keep from killing myself...
