    I hate falling over in public ...

    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 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???

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    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.

    Thanks Kay for the set.

    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!
