I fell today - Ouch!

[NYJen]

So this morning as I came out of the subway, I noticed an ambulance on the corner and was just taking a quick peek as I walked by. Well, as I turned back around to face forward, the woman walking in front of me either slowed down or stopped walking and I plowed right into her. Not only did I go down, but I took her with me. My bags went flying and I ended up on my back. I twisted my ankle and banging my head on the street. Ouch!!!

 

A bunch of people stopped to ask if we were ok. As I got up and gathered my stuff, I apologized to the lady I knocked over. Well, she sat there whining and crying. I apologized again. She kept carrying on. So finally (and very NY of me) I yelled at her and told her I was sorry but I didn't do it on purpose and to get over it. Sheesh!!!

My head is fine, but my ankle was bothering me all morning. It's fine now.

Seriously, that woman was just carrying on and being all dramatic. I only stood there for about a minute before I had enough of her. But come on already - stand up and move it along. There's nothing to see here people!!!

LOL!!!

Glad I made you laugh. LOL!!! Remind me to tell you about the time I got ran over by a bike messenger. That's a hoot!!!

I'm ok. Thanks for asking.

She was young (late 30's, early 40's.) But what a PITA!!!!

hehe sorry I'm a huge klutz so I find great pleasure in knowing other people are just like me sometimes

I kinda imagined her as some old, frail woman! Now I definately see why you were so frustrated with her!!
