How dumb can you get
Yesterday - the hottest day of the year so far - saw me walk head first into a lamppost. I was talking to another dog owner at the time and I was slightly wary as the dog was running loose on an extending lead right around my fee so I didn't see the lamp post. The first I knew of its presence was when there was a loud clang just as my head made contact. At first I just felt dizzy. This other woman was asking anxiously if I was ok. My head was ringing but even then I had to see the funny side of it. I didn't get a bump on my head and in a few moments my head resumed to normal functioning but today I was very wary of all dangerous lampposts.

Those damned lamposts just leap out in front of you. I had one do it to me when I was walking along with Elder Daughter. She laughed so hard I thought she was going to pass out!
Oh, the innate hostility of inanimate objects. Mind you, I don't know if muesli with live blueberry yoghurt counts as animate or not, but by the time my brand new, bright yellow polo-shirt finally made it into work on its first ever outing, I had discovered that sometimes I may need a bib more than Johnny does.
