Tonight on the way out of the grocery store I went to a Netflicks machine and rented a dvd. When I got to the living room, I realized that my daughter took her dvd player back. I don't have one. Oh wait, I can play it on my computer!!! Ha !!

I was distracted and my foot slid off the pedal when I was clipping in. the crank spun around and hit me in the shin.

I found him later. He was wrapped around the table leg.

Hope it wasn't an MTB.

Well, it's been wet lately and the Corps of Engineers controls the lake levels by releasing water from the lakes to flow through the river, sometimes days after the rain actually falls. So when using the low water crossings over the river, you have to check before you use them. Today, though, I rode my bike all the way down the ramp to the low water crossing before realizing it was obviously too deep for me to try to cross. So I had to ride my bike right back up the ramp I'd ridden down moments before and ended up riding three miles out of my way to get home.

Luckily the weather was freakin gorgeous so the extra miles weren't necessarily a bad thing.

Lets see, my daughter called me into her room to ask me a question and I banged my head really hard on her steel tubed elevated bed, then I went down stairs to feed the animals, I went to the kitchen and used a stool to grab a bag of dog food out of the cabinet and for whatever reason Trio thought it would be a great idea to lay down right behind me, so when I came down off the stool I almost stepped on her, I tried to keep myself from falling backward by trying to bring the left leg that was still on the stool behind me to steady myself, instead my foot caught the edge of the mopping bucket right between my little toe! :twitchy: oh yeah, I still fell! :mad: but the pain in my little toe felt way worse than the pain from the fall! :( so I hobbled from the kitchen over towards the living room, to get into the living room I had to go over the little child gate we use to keep Trio away from the other dogs at night, so I throw my left foot over the gate and all is good till I throw my right leg over the gate and ram my right knee full force into the wood CD rack! So now I have a swollen right knee with a small hole in it! Why would this be something stupid I did today? 'cause I went to bed and 3:30 AM, woke up at 6:00 AM and tried to do a bunch of stuff while I was still officially asleep! Now I've got a bump on my head, a broken little toe (yes, I broke it) and a swollen left knee with a little hole in it. :mad:

Years later you'll find your snake petrified behind the couch, like my girlfriend did with her lizard who got away.

So true, so far we've found the petrified body of a ferret, a black jet snake, assorted tree frogs and anoles, and my mother in law....OK the mother in law thing isn't true, but theres always tomorrow. :D

I was going to get up early and go ride before the forecast snow. But I sat up way too late, drinking vodka and watching DVDs. Now it's early afternoon, the snow's coming down hard and I can't get my hungover butt off the couch.

I cut myself with a butter knife. Yep, slicing a pre-sliced bagel and rammed the butter knife through it and left a nice cut on my left index finger.

And with all of the self-knifing exploits that go on in Foo, I feel really stupid.

And as to the animal getting away stories, my roommate once upon a time had a lobster and a crab in his fishtank. They broke out within a few days of another... the crab headed for the nearest door (to the balcony) a few feet away. The lobster headed the other way and I found him down the flight of stairs about halfway to the front door. Both dead... petrified crustacean partners in crime, like Bonnie and Clyde with exoskeletons and pincers.

I laid around around in bed all day, watched TV, ate peanut butter and honey sandwiches, and got softer.

I tried to ride up some very small hills. I'm less than 4 weeks from a hernia surgery (post op, not pre op). It hurt. I'll stay on the flats for a while longer.

I cleverly got all my stupidity out of the way earlier in the week and took today off. I will, however, be back to life as usual tomorrow and stupidity will once again reign supreme.
