Getting hair caught in a vacuum sounds less funny than scary! I hope it didn't require a special haircut afterwards!

Diane--
Welcome to Pens Fatales! This cracked me up. I don't slip/fall but I do have an amazing propensity to get things caught...a zipper tab in a turnstile, my hair in the vacuum cleaner (the worst of this was it was on and I couldn't reach the off button so i was yelling for help and NO ONE could hear me) :)

Oh, they were the silky/lacey/sexy kind, but sadly...

Oh, they were the silky/lacey/sexy kind, but sadly my colleages were, how shall I say it, playing for the other team, so other than getting a godo laugh, they just didn't care!

Welcome to Pensfatales, Diane!
Here's my question about the panties: were they great, silky, clean underwear or were they utilitarian or...even worse...the kind you should have tossed weeks ago but you held on to because they were the only clean ones in the drawer...? If they were silky/lacey/sexy I guarantee you made the day of all the male witnesses!

Too funny! When our mom's taught us the importance of always wearing "good underwear" I don't think this is what they had in mind!

Hysterical post, Diane, and I feel your pain. I once made the mistake of throwing on sweats straight out of the dryer. Walking across the grocery store parking lot I felt something crawl down my leg. Deathly afraid of spiders, I began to stomp to get the thing off me. To the delight of onlookers gathered to watch me dance, a pair of underwear fell from my pant leg. There is nothing graceful about static cling.

Thanks for the welcome! Adrienne, I see you are living with a couple of goofballs, too. And Sophie, we should chat sometime. You're one of my kind!

i adore you already, as a fellow klutz. at a conference last year i came out of the bathroom with my skirt tucked into the top of my tights. Oh yes I did. Tell ya what, you can be in my all-faux-pas-forgiven club....

Welcome Diane. I loved your post. It got me thinking that if your muses are like the Three Stooges then mine are just like the Marx Brothers :-)

Back in the day, when we all worked in small boxes, a friend of mine hung a Three Stooges poster in his cubicle.

One day, as he was talking on the phone, the Plant Manager came by, saw the poster, and sat down in the visitor's chair.

When my friend hung up, The PM pointd to the poster and said, "I like that. We need more humor here." Then he got up and left.

Life is tough. We need more humor here.
