Well, I ruined my perfect manicure last night by sliding down the stairs. We have carpeted stairs and I have big feet, so if I step just a little too far to the edge of the tread, I go sliding down feet first with no hope of recovery.

Despite that fact, I still was grappling for the railing to try to stop my high speed descent. It was during this futile attempt at deceleration that two of my acrylic nails snapped off.

Seriously, if I go more that two days without falling down (or up) the stairs, or jamming my foot into a doorway or corner I consider it a blessing.

Is anyone else this clumsy? Are you willing to admit it?

I'm gonna be such a fun old person, when the accidents can cause more damage.
