Now you know that my hugs have special healing powers so your head is going to be just fine, right? And if you feel nauseous at all today you're gonna call your doctor because you have a concussion, ok?
End of finger wag.
I hate getting all banged up when my medications are working because everyone knows my middle name is grace. (actually, my name irl means grace, as does my middle name; my mother must have been lazy or wishing really hard on some elusive quality there.) Anyway I'm very self conscious of being a klutz and that's why I loved having my private yoga classes. I could fall over in my own home and my teacher wouldn't go on without me or make anything more out of falling over than what it was. She would say, "let's do Child's Pose," and we would just curl up on the floor like the most natural thing in the world. It was so lovely.
Why is it when we fall down in public the first thing we do is look to see who might have seen it happen? I did an amazing prat fall in a restaurant one Stupor Bowl Sunday after having lots of free rum samples. The restaurant - a football-themed place owned by a former Stupor Bowl ring holder, naturally, was packed. I slipped on a slick spot on the floor; and picked myself up so fast that it looked like I had bungie-jumped off the bar. Or break danced, or something astonishing like that. Of course I got back to the table and started to blubber and sob in my most attractive fashion.
But I thought I'd share.
Hope you're feeling better soon, sweetie.
