One of the most embarassing moments........

in my life happened today. I was buying groceries, one of the items was a large jar of olive oil. I put it in the area where children normally sit, but I did not put up the plastic piece that covers the leg holes. ( Are you starting to see the problem? )
So of course it falls at my feet breaking all over the place and I jump to prevent the jar from hitting my foot. I avoided it hitting my foot, wich would have actually been better. So I fall and bust my ass right in the middle of the store. And I couldn't get up right away since my hands were covered in oil and I was slipping around. One of the stockers came over and asked if I was OK and helped me up. He asked what fell I told him, he asked what else fell because he heard two things hit the floor. After a second I figured out it was my head hitting the floor. He heard it the next aisle over..........nice.
The manager and several employees gather around me to ask if i am ok, they try to get me to go to the hospital to get checked out, and of course the only thing I want at this point is to be invisible. I am drawing a crowd as people who heard me fall and curse loudly are trying to find out what happened. I compose myself with as much dignity as I can and go to the self serve checkout still dripping with oil and purchase the only item they cannot put back sliced deli meat. The I go home and pick little shards of glass out of my ass and ankle.
As I related the story to Barb I started cracking up and so did she, it was very humerous. Woulda been even funnier if it had happened to someone who was not me!!
