A few weeks ago, it was very icy outside. VERY VERY ICY.
I was walking back to my dorm with my friend at midnight after just grabbing take-out buffalo wings from the dining hall when we hit a point in the path where the ground turned into a solid sheet of ice.
Oh great…
Goofing off, I pretended to demonstrate how to “SAFELY and properly” walk on ice as I crouched down into a squat and began sliding my feet back and forth like an old man.
Sure enough, my feet slipped out in front of me and I flew back landing on my butt and then onto my back. Ow. Spine. Ouch.
Now I really felt old.

In the process of falling, I tossed my take-out into the air, and buffalo wings and buffalo sauce landed EVERYWHERE.
I laid there, stunned. I laughed but I think I wanted to cry.
Some guy walking by saw me laying on the ground surrounded by black ice and red stuff and immediately asked, “IS HE OKAY?” He definitely thought I was bleeding because of the buffalo sauce… (And perhaps the wings looked like displaced organs?)
I told him I was going to be fine as I tried standing back up. Back at my dorm, I took out the box and ate the few wings I had left. I was sad that night. 🙁
But was it your pride that hurt most, or the fact you’d lost your dinner?

I was pretty hungry… I think the fact that I had lost my dinner… 😉
(By the way, did you make a new account??)
I’m playing around with the idea of a second blog to write other stuff on, but it’s all on my same account. Is that what you meant?

I’m not sure. It caught my attention because your recent comments appear from the same account but it no longer says that I follow you… how strange. I’ll follow you again – it must have something to do with the new blog.
