I have been having a big problem with stairs lately. I am not drunk. I am not tripping over carelessly placed shoes/toys/skates. My shoelaces are not untied.
I broke my pinkie finger on Thanksgiving falling UP the stairs. Letting the dogs in, wearing slippers, in a hurry to get everything done = ouch. I did not go to the dr because I don't believe they do anything for broken pinkie fingers besides tape them up. I did that myself, and it is still kinda jacked. Perhaps next time I break a finger I will go get it checked out.
But in the meantime, WTF is going on? I seriously fall down the stairs at least once every week or so. Many times it is because I am wearing socks and my feet just slip down some stairs like skiing. But much less graceful and very bumpy and there is no swooshy snow to help me along. This often turns into a tumble with 30 limbs all akimbo and ending up underneath the crushing weight of my big fat ass. I guess I need to slow down.
Last night I had a dream that I was somehow part of a really cool band - like the new member. It maybe was some kind of alt folk, but was made up of really awesome rockin' women, and their beautiful songs were loved by boys and girls, young and old. I was seriously starstruck and in awe, but they were sooo cool that I was also perfectly comfortable around them. We were having a concert in a gymnasium and we were on the bleachers and the audience was in folding chairs lined up on the floor. It was very casual. It turned out I was the new singer (!?!) and it was my first time playing with them. So I was holding the mic and these chicks were all surrounding me and being very supportive and sweet. And I started singing, but I couldn't remember the words, but it was ok - they just helped me along and I knew I would eventually remember and everything would be fine because it was totally low stress and lovely. I wish I could have kept sleeping.

What a beautiful dream. Maybe it was all of your friends who love you sending you awesome vibes. I have been thinking about u all constantly.
Be so careful not to do the Grosse Pointe Shuffle. I do not know why I remember this but our gym teacher at Liggett always admonished us for not truly walking and sort of just barely moving our legs and feet enough to somewhat glide forward. Maybe you are exhausted and are walking all shady? I had no idea you broke your finger--even at our house that day was it hurting?? Poor baby!!
I love the new Our Gang on top of the blog, so incredible. I miss that show alot.

I stumbled upon your blog via recipezaar and had to laugh at this post. I too fall down my stairs often. No, I'm not drunk or anything fun like that. Narrow stairs+thick carpet+slippery socks+no hand railing= ouch. I managed to mess up my back really badly though. FYI- bulged disks are really painful. Best of luck in all your future stair endevors.
