Stupid Things You Do

Post Reply New Topic

Walking down the stairs of a club at the start of a night out, (sober) wearing ridiculously high stilettos and of course a skirt... my ankle wobbled and I tumbled down the steps arriving into the packed reception area like a bowling ball, on my back, completely winded and unable to move. Classy! lol
I wear mostly flat shoes now.

Eating raw garlic, also eating straight butter, sometimes even sipping the surplus of the grease off a pan (before it's heated, of course) mmmm that is sooo good, sniffing things that are new to me ... probably some others as well

a common occurrence with my big fat flat feet, I miss the top step while descending a staircase, fall hard upon my tuckas, bounce down each step BRUP BRUP BRUP etc. going OW OW OW OW etc. until I fall down on the bottom landing, only to have some door open and a bunch of heads peer out staring at me like I have 3 heads or something then duck back behind the door.

no law against both happenin' at once

Yesterday I was about to put the toaster in the fridge...

I tend to lose things and forget that I have things and get more of the things I already have.

^^ my partner does the same so as a result we end up with about a million screws, scissors, pens and so on...
He looses things, but I'm good at finding stuff and he is the NT

^^ haha very true
It's all about putting things in perspective

yeh, I should be thankful that so far I can still do that somewhat

Oh and about a month ago I managed to break my phone , completely broken screen because I forgot that it was in my pocket…
About a minute earlier I was thinking, I have to be careful with my phone, so I put it in my pocket and then I went through the door and I saw that it was dirty on the steps so I started cleaning, already forgotten about the phone, so when I bent down it fell out and cracked completely….grr I don’t know how many time I forget about the position of things and manage to break them.
I am probably one of the clumsiest people in the world…and with a head like a sifter.

I leave my phone in a secure [IOW it can't fall out] compartment in my clothing so I have so far managed to goof-proof it. but in terms of proprioception [knowing where one's body boundaries are at] I have to always be mindful of where my head and toes and arms are at for fear of bonking my head on some low object or stubbing my toes on some low object.

My phone is now safely incased in a love mei case, so my phone looks abnormally big nowadays…
But serves me right since I already managed to drop it on tiles, but the case saved it

I ‘m terrible, I always manage to hurt myself, it’s like my awareness of myself or my surrounding sometimes disappears even if it was in my head a minute before…

I bought another (basic) cell phone last week because I could not find my old one. I needed the loo and directly after that headed out to the ATM and two shops. While shopping at the second shop I felt in my pocket. No phone. Went and looked at the first shop and asked at the till. No phone. Thought I must have taken it out at the ATM or at the till of Shop#1. Wanted to call the number from two call boxes but they both seem to accept only cards and no slots for coins, so crossly left them dangling off the hook. Came home, searched the flat again and went out to buy a new phone and get it registered and on the system. Returned home and went into the bathroom. Old phone sitting innocently and silently on the laundry basket in rolling its eyes at me, asking me in heartfelt electronic ESP why I never checked the bathroom in the first place.

(when I panic I don't think straight...)

^^Well at least you didn't break yours
