I fell

so, this is my first post. i know its long awaited and you guys have been harassing me and making comments about babies that i dont get, but anway, i fell. thought you guys would be interested since i am a "faller down of stairs." well, now put me down as a "faller down in baths." i fell in the shower on sunday. hold your laughter. i've ever since been reminded of my fall because of the huge black bruise on the back of my thigh that i have to sit on for eight or more hours at work. at first i thought, that'll be a cool bruise. i was wrong, there is nothing cool about your rear hurting when you have to sit for many long hours.

so how did this happen you ask? well you probably aren't actually asking that since asking "how did helen happen to fall?" is like asking "how did stoli happen to fart?" The answer is in the question, Helen falls and stoli farts, its just the way it is. i wont spare you the details though because this is a blog and i cant afford to spare details so ill just put them down in type. so i was done with my shower and ready to step out of the bath. one foot was planted on the floor and the other in mid air ready to exit the bath tub area and enter the bathroom area. it doesnt take a degree in physics to figure out how the next part of the story transpired, one foot was in the air, no surface to grip, no surface to aide as a producer of frictional force. the other foot was on the bath floor and managed to overcome friction and slip. so now im literally swept off both feet. since i cant fly, the foot in the air came crashing down on the rails that the sliding door fits on, ultimately resulting in an interesting bruise under my foot. in response i screamed at the top of my lungs and was comforted by the sound of oshin running up the stairs to rescue me. it was too late, my fall continued and the back of my thigh landed on the rails. i've been limping and sitting funny for four days now. it could have been worse i guess. so there's my first blog. about how i fell.

stoli does fart. and you do fall. truer words have never been spoken. ok, maybe they have...

anyway, im sorry that you fell. i forgot to ask you about seeing that bruise. i heard it was bad.

Helen I saw that bruise before i heard the story. It all comes together now, i feel really bad that you fell but i almost fell like God made you this way so we can all have a good laugh:) i would never want you to get hurt but i couldn't help but giggle when i read this. Stoli farts but it's his natural state, i guess falling is your natural state, not according to the law of physics. Sorry for the bad grammar, i don't feel like fixing my mistakes.

actually the law of physics says we should fall... right? because of gravity?

helen said...

well, according to the laws of physics one should fall if one is standing in such a way that one cannot achieve equilibrium or balance in order to stand. I would say the way normal people move, the law of physics says that our feet (or butt if one is sitting) will be on the ground because of the presence of gravity, but not falling over all the time like myself and other clumsy people...that would be an fun sight, people falling all over the place...
