Walking Skills are Questionable...

So, this morning as I walked into work I fell up the stairs, yes you read that right UP the stairs. I was feeling very proud of myself for not smacking my face on the steps above me and for gracefully managing not to drop any of my belongings, until I looked up and noticed the conference room (which has a wall of windows over looking the lobby) was full of people. I am not sure if anyone noticed (hopefully not) but that just added insult to injury…ya know? So feeling all stupid and special I walked back to my desk to tell my coworker about my skills only to look down and see my toe was covered in blood…and maybe embarrassment isn’t my only issue here. Sister to the rescue!!!.... who gleefully poured peroxide on my wound and bandaged me up (we have some weird joy with using peroxide, our dad used it for every cut we had as kids, so we get excited being able to inflict the pain of peroxide on others…kinda sick I guess). So I hobbled back to my desk with my split toe (don’t worry I didn’t chip my polish…just split the underside) to enjoy the balloons, streamers, card and my two favorite sparkling juices (the juice was from sister and Buns of course)….Because tomorrow is my BIRTHDAY…and everyone at my office, apparently, loves me because we don’t do too much for birthdays around here. So there is a big chocolate cake in the kitchen (again from sister) waiting for me to enjoy and sister is gleefully laughing (just short of peeing her pants) at me hobbling down the hall. I received an amazing b-day gift already…someone thought I was 23 and seriously that is a great gift in my book (the belly babe thing would have trumped it but we aren’t talking about that whole issue right now)…overall (even with all the ridiculousness of my walking issues) I am having a pretty good day.

Hey and who can stay bummed for too long when you have this beautiful and hilarious girl to snuggle…or chase…Yee Haw, Ya’ll!



P.S. Thanks for the extra love :) I needed that.
