I don't think I want to survive the apocalypse if there is not coffee.<br /><br />Bee: Yeah, I have a slight anxiety about all things car. I don't know why, I have a good car, and I am a good driver, but I know not to let my blood pressure get taken within 30 minutes of driving!<br /><br />Stephanie Iris: Yes, indoors. Towels. But trying to hide just makes people look harder! What is she hiding? There is no winning. None. And I usually draw attention to myself by stubbing my toe, falling, or some other piece of ridiculousness that ends in tears.<br /><br />I once punched myself in the face putting on a swimsuit.

I was pretty surprised that no one laughed at me. I think they couldn't take their eyes off the fluorescent bruise developing on my thigh. Heh. ((bows)). Just call me Grace.<br /><br />StephanieC: There is something about the hot tub, and the vulnerability of swimsuits that SCREAMS "I should fall down and hurt myself". I have to admit I really WISHED I was drunk. I only knew three people in the room, and was acquainted to one other. I make the best first impressions.<br /><br />I was fine. I just had more... colorful skin than normal.

This is my life, except that you actually have friends and/or people who ask you to be in their wedding party.<br /><br />Hope you aren't too bruised and battered. Emotionally or physically.<br /><br />Same thing happened a few years ago getting into someone's hot tub IN THEIR DECK. There was no stool, or step. I just managed to slip my leg between the tub and the deck boards.<br /><br />My leg looked mangled for weeks.<br /><br />*sigh*...StephanieChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01990131434281226939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6436529532164956333.post-3247942911327850712012-12-14T17:14:36.683-07:002012-12-14T17:14:36.683-07:00You poor thing!
