The other night at the gym I had an experience. I posted about it on FB. I have some humorous friends...one in particular could be a stand up comedian. I just feel that I have to put this on my blog in order to save this experience. I am a clutz for those of you who don't know me well. Just today I slipped in the hall at school and ended up in the splits. A student said, "Mrs. Bunch, you are really good at the splits." I told him thank you, but inside I thought "I didn't mean to do the splits. Good think I've been working out." If you were to have a conversation with my mom about the injuries I have sustained over the years she just starts laughing. There are too many to remember them all. And they are so random...flipping head first over your bicycle, cutting your hand and requiring five stitches because of a coke bottle that was sitting on a shelf, falling while attempting to roller skate and knocking yourself out, falling down a flight of stairs and spraining your ankle bad enough it has to be in a cast...I could go on and on and on...there are some things I just know I shouldn't try. I think it is a sign of strength to be able to admit your limitations.
My Post:Tonight at the gym on the Elliptical watching the Food Network. The show was The Best Thing I Ever Ate...CAKE!!! Torture! The guy next to me on the treadmill was running at a level 10. He disappeared from my view. I glanced over because I thought maybe he fell off. He was running backward on the thing. Now that's talent and something I will never try! Cause you know what would happen to me...
Stephanie Bingman Kice: Frankly, I am surprised you didn't fall just looking over at him.
Lauren Sullivan-Stoner: HAHAHAHA That made me snort!
Dan Stewart: Keep your eyes straight forward Stoner.
Stephanie Bingman Kice: I think it is dangerous for you watch TV while you are on the elliptical. There are too many moving parts....
Lauren Sullivan-Stoner: LOL
Dan Stewart: Tonight on Emergency 911...It was a calm evening at the gym until this young lady decided it was time to turn her head to the left...watch on this video...as she keeps trying to pull her left foot from the eliptical while her other leg has wrapped around her neck...somehow her big toe is stuck in ther mouth. Took 2 paramedics to pull her foot out and 2 more to run CPR on the other people in the gym who had laughed themselves into cardiac arrest.
Stephanie Bingman Kice: ...longtime friends report that they knew it was only a matter of time before this ticking time bomb went off.
Linda Green Cottingham: Dan, you are a riot!
Dan Stewart: One witness said "well you could tell somthing bad was going to happen when she walked in. She stubbed her toe on the door threashold then hit her head on the military press when she tied her shoe. Lke a huricane that was predicted days in advance you can just see somethings coming."
Josie Stiles: Oh my goodness that wouldn't end well for me!!!!!!!!
Tammy Stone Bunch: Laughing so hard I'm crying is an understatement. I had to call my mom and read this to her, but then I was laughing even harder because of how hard she was laughing. I think I just burned more calories because of this post than I have in the last two nights at the gym! As my mom said, "It's so nice that your friends know you so well." Love you guys...really needed this tonight.
Larry Bunch: The sad thing is....its all true
Stephanie Bingman Kice: We love you too!!!!
Stephanie Brown DeClue: Dan, that was too funny - and scary accurate!
This commentary only provides support to my thinking that I shall never ever try to run backward on a treadmill! These dear friends know me too well.
