UGH. You guys, I don’t know if you know… but I am pretty much the clumsiest person alive.

Everyday is a new bruise (if you could only see my legs right now!), I slam into just about everything, always tripping up stairs… but I must say, this weekend was pretty much the mother of all of my “incidents”.

We were at my best friends house for dinner & I was wearing my go-to fur slides. Mules, for the record, are my nemesis. The last thing an uncoordinated human needs is a pair of shoes not really attached to her feet. Disaster waiting.

So… why I thought it was a good idea to play pretend basketball (the ball was a stuffed animal) with my 5 year old godson beats me. I can’t really tell you what happened, but there was a shoe slip, & I was going down and taking Ford with me. I guess my maternal reaction kicked in (weird), because my first reaction was to aggresibvely throw my body over his to protect him from hitting the barbecue. Luckily he was in the clear, but my head went smack into that barbecue.

Ford started screaming cause he got scared, & the only thing I could do was tell him I was okay so he would calm down. Typically every time I eat shit I cry/whine like a 5 year old, but I guess being that I wasn’t the five year old, I really had to keep my shit together.

I remember looking up at Zack & saw straight fear in his face. I realized then, that it was a pretty serious slam. I iced it up, but honestly, I am pretty sure I had a concussion since I don’t even remember driving home… which I guess involved a call to my sister which I only found about when I called her in the morning to tell her what had happened. The best part of all- I fell asleep on the couch the second we got home & woke up to a delivery guy bringing me ice cream. YUP. Totally have no memory of when I placed that order. I did down the whole pint though…

I don’t know if mercury is in retrograde or something, but I think it’s best I just do as little movement as possible for a hot minute…. & def. wear more shoes with laces. Okay okay, cheers ladies. Happy Monday, hope your weekend us less painful than mine. x, E

  1. Omg that is so scary! Glad you are ok now, I always get really freaked out when I hit my head. I feel like the surprise of everything is what elicits tears most of the time more than pain.

  2. Honestly, I am just as clumsy! All my life i’ve been that way .. walking into parked cars turning around and hitting a wall! haha so i definitely know how you feel! btw happy hump day Erica!! <3
