Catch me, I'm fallin'

My "good luck week" got even better on Friday when I fell into a puddle- not once, but twice. How did this happen, you ask? I had a meeting with the professor that I work with Friday afternoon and because it was raining and showed no signs of stopping I decided to drive rather than walk to campus. As I got close to my car I saw a good size puddle right at the foot of the driver side door. Since it was a couple inches deep and I had on sandels, stepping in the puddle had to be avoided. So this clever idea popped in my head- I'll open the door and sort of do a Dukes of Hazard enterance where I'll hold on to the roof and swing into the car. Only I hesitated, which caused my hands to slip and my ass landing in the puddle. And if this wasn't enough, as I went to turn over and stand up my left foot slips and I fall back into the puddle almost face first only my forearm broke the fall. Needless to say I quicky looked around to see if anyone was out in the parking lot and ran back into my apartment.

it really did seem like a good idea at the time.
