:: Such a Fucking Klutz ::
It's weeks like this that remind me why I should never get drunk again. Ever.

I bought my first pair of Oakley's in 7 years from ebay 2 months ago thinking I was free of my "sunglass curse" - my propensity for losing, breaking, or irrepairably damaging expensive shades.

This happens last Saturday: I'm walking with some friends on the sidewalk. One of the guys behind me asks me a question so I turn around and reply to him. I end up walking with my head turned around for a good ten feet or so on a narrow sidewalk. Our chat is over, I start to turn back forward, only to walk face-first into a signpost. And I walk pretty fast.

So now there's a two deep, nasty, inch-long scratches on the left side, right in my field of vision. Unlike the Bambino, my curse seems to be alive and well. Fortunately, the lenses are easily interchangable, but still.

Wednesday, I'm at class at the Crispin office. It's held in a conference room with all glass doors. Back up to earlier that day, when I drag myself out of bed after going to sleep around 6:00am.

So now its about 8:30, I'm a little tired, and I have a lot on my mind. I'm walking back to the conference room after a bathroom break. Thoughts about Friday's presentation is first and foremost in my mind. I'm the type to put my hand on my head when I'm deep in thought. As I approach the room, I start rubbing my eye... only to walk face-first into a glass door. Again, I don't walk slow so I'm honestly surprised that the door didn't break. So now I have nice little knot on my forehead right above my left eye. I can honestly say that's my first classroom-related injury.

This is why I don't get drunk. I'm dangerous enough sober.
