We were just walking over to the next building for a co-worker's farewell, and I slipped down the stairs, hurting my toe, back, shoulder and wrist (and ego). Someone in the crowd helped me up (why do these things only happen in public?). I then realised that my knee-length skirt has a split up the back right to my bottom :o and I won't be going anywhere looking like that ...
Now everyone is out having fun and I'm trying to sew my skirt while wearing bicycle shorts and everything is starting to hurt where I fell, but I can't cry because it's the Captain's rounds today and he's coming to inspect our building soon ... I hate today.
Some days just aren't made for you, are they? Sorry you had a bad day, I would have helped you up.
:) *hugs* :)
Tomorrow is another day, and I hope you can get out and have some fun soon!

Janet Jackson had no problem showing off her boob, so......
If you have a biker's bum then just toss the skirt over the shorts and start a new fashion craze!
I am sorry you fell and I hope you feel better..
My back was out late last week and I am just starting to feel better......could it be the gravity from the South Pole???

*hugs* When it rains it pours. Cliche I know but so true. Sorry to hear you are having such a rough day today :(. I sure hope things look up for you soon. Just think of those happy doxies waiting for you to get home! :)

Ouch! I can only imagine how painful that was - both physically and ego-ly!
At least nobody ran to find the trophy for the office klutz!
Take a nice hot bath and go to bed early tonight - and perhaps you should treat yourself to some takeout!

OW!!! I hope you feel better Nicole. I agree...go home and soak in a hot tub with Epsom salts. I just hope your ego is bruised more than your body....the ego doesn't cause real bruises. I'm glad someone was nice enough to help you up.

Oh Nicole, I am sorry. I have done things like that before and it sucks.
Go home and give your babies a big hug and you will feel better.

Sorry you had a bad time :( Hopefully your not hurt.
I could tell you about an experience my mom had falling down stairs when she was a kid that might make you feel better;)...It envolves a 'bathroom' bucket. Hm..maybe I shouldn't :X

Hey - hope you are OK!?
I would have helped you too ........ but then again I would have laughed, which would have made you laugh ............. and I would stay back to help you sew your skirt!
Lucky it was not on a Thursday, or we would have had to blame RICHARD!
