Coffee Table Declarations
Thursday, July 17, 2003
 
Today a coworker and I walked to a nearby restaurant to get lunch. I don't know her very well so I was surprised when, as we were walking back, she asked if I wanted to hear a dirty joke. "Sure", I said apprehensively. She then proceeded to tell me a dirty joke which didn't make sense. Maybe I missed something or maybe she told it wrong, but not wanting to risk embarrassment and admit that I didn't get it, I laughed heartily and exclaimed how funny it was. At that exact moment however, embarrassment-karma got me. My shoe twisted in an odd way and I lost my balance and down I went. Nothing like a good fall to add some real humor to a situation. The lesson here is that sometimes you just can't avoid embarrassment. Sooner or later it will catch up with you.
 
Welcome to the coffee table of my mind.
