Anyone as clumsy as me?

I tripped going up the stairs this morning and sliced my hand open. Yay! I trip all the time...

I usually just laugh it off but my hand hurts!

Feel free to share your own tripping/falling/various other clumsy stories.

I always trip up the stairs, have never fallen down the stairs in my life

Walking to MSB (Main Street Beverage) on my way to work one day, I slammed my foot against the curb of Main Street, and I don't mean I stumbled or tripped, I just SLAMMED my foot into that curb.

It really, *really* hurt to walk for almost a week, but hey, I'm too macho to let that stop me from going to work.

Let's see, last Monday I completely missed my chair at work and fell hard on my butt.

The kids were all gone, however, as I lay on the ground with tears in my eyes I started thinking "I'm not going to be able to get up until the cleaning ladies come and help me." Luckily I was able to pull myself up into my chair and prayed for the pain to go away. It's now been a week and my tail bone still hurts.

Fast forward to Wednesday of last week. I get up early in the morning to take my dogs out and somehow fall after I get down the steps. I don't know what happened (did I black out? was I still half asleep?), but I fell face forward onto the concrete, thus slicing my left hand with one of the dogs' leashes.

Needless to say, last week was rough.

I am a clumsy wreck. Most nights when I get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, I inevitably run in to my bed post on my way back in bed. I've had the same bed 8 years, you would think I would learn, but nooooo, I usually have a big bruise on my thigh from this...

Today I got my hair caught in my car window while rolling up my window. Hurt pretty bad and I was driving and trying to reach for the button to put it down again.

In disney last month I tripped on a step with the kids while climbing the Swiss Family Robinson tree house and just about broke a banister....

That is just off the top of my head. I really am a mess, ask anyone who knows. me.

Your guys' stories make me feel a lot better!

What's this infamous bagel incident?

**vixen101485** · 04-10-2006, 07:11 PM

Just a few clutzy things on my list.....

Slipped walking across my yard causing me to have a broken ankle that needed surgery with a plate and s c r e w s put in(ask me to feel the s c r e w s-creeps the heck outta ppl) and torn ligements on the other side of the same ankle.
6 months later--same ankle sprained this time by stepping on a pebble the size of a pea while crossing the street.
Different ankle years earlier got off cast from a broken and sprained it falling off a horse 2 weeks later. That also caused a nice hoof print shaped bruise on my thigh where the next horse on the trail ride stepped on me. (stupid person riding it apparntly couldnt see my big body lying there--geez)

YES MY ANKLES HAVE ISSUES LOL

My middle name should be Grace...ha. I fall all of the time, run into stuff, and loads more. Just two weeks ago at a family member's house, I went to go downstairs, and I kinda missed the step. The next thing I knew, I was at the bottom of the stairsIt was kinda fun. I also tripped over the carpet in the hallway of the Contemporary at 1 am last summer..that was funny.

my roomie had come back from a trip and left her suitcase lying out for days and i totally walked right into and bruised my toe and now i'm just waiting for the nail to fall off...i am constantly walking into door frames and hitting my head against the mannequins that i change at work...i like to blame it on my low blood pressure but that doesn't really work...oh yeah and i fell up the stairs at work (i work at a dept store so a ton of people saw) some guy was like oh are you ok? do you need help? i am such a spaz!

It will hurt for a while

There is nuthin they can do except give you a "donut" to sit on to take pressure off of it.
