My 100th Post

You know how in cartoons, characters often slip and fall on a banana peel? Haha funny, right?

Actually, not-so-much! Especially when you are stepping out of your car at Target, juggling your purse, your car keys, and your cellphone - and you nearly break your neck...like I did yesterday!

No worries - I'm fine. I caught myself somehow...but imagine my surprise when I saw that I had actually slipped on a banana peel? WHO does that??? LOL. The utter randomness of this event just totally cracked me up. In fact, I am still laughing as I write this...

I have to be honest. After reading this post, I am shaking my head in disbelief. If it weren't for the actual PICTURE of the banana peel...I'm not sure I would've believed you. :)

You are right, who actually slips on a banana peel? A patch of ice maybe? But a banana? Lol. I am glad u are ok...thank god, would the ER nurse believe u when u would come in with a broken something or another and then explain how it happened. They might have sent u to the looney bin! LOL xo OLM

Thanks to the I-phone for capturing the banana after the fact.

If we would have gone to the ER, I would have put the nanna in a zip lock for evidence... I doubt the insurance company would have believed it either...

You know what? I never thought anyone could really slip on a banana peal either. See the things I learn on your blog. Sounds like something that would happen to me : )

Okay, Julie - laughed out loud at your post. The pic just makes it. However, as someone who once sprained my ankle stumbling over a SPEED BUMP, I would have believed your story even without the pic!:-)

OK....so here I was 8 months pregnant, belly out to HERE...I'm in the produce section of the grocery and BAM! down I go....a grape. I actually had to go to the hospital for that one.
Fast forward a year...here I am again at the same grocery again in the produce section. Yup, you guessed it---BAM! Down I go. This time---a POTATO!!!! Well, a potato PEEL anyway. The only thing that was hurt this time was my pride---I was wearing a short, little linen tank dress that came WAY up. This man had the audacity to laugh---I threw my hand carry shopping basket at him and stormed out. When I got in the car, my husband asks, "Did you get my batteries?" Grrrrrr!'
I shop at a different grocery now! :)
Jules-I owe you an email--it's coming!
Merry, Merry Christmas!
