foolish balance

I just came back up the stairs with a cup of coffee and really slipped on the last couple of steps. I managed to not spill any coffee, though. I've been known to have that talent...

Years ago, I was going up the stairs with a plate of spaghetti. I slipped, both of my shins hit the stairs, but I spilled very little of the spaghetti. I got two HUGE bumps on both of my shins, so, it was definitely painful, but, hey, you know that old adage:

"'Tis better to get two HUGE bumps on your shins than to spill a plate of spaghetti, Kenny."
