My giant grape of a toe

When was the last time you just fell for no damned reason? The other day I was walking through the parking lot of a 7-11 (yes, we have those) and I tried to hop gingerly over a cement retaining wall and landed right on my face.

I tried to push off with my left foot and land on my right, but I kicked off my Birkenstock in the process and really took a fall.

I banged up both of my knees and of course attracted the attention of a few people passing by.

The next day my toe turned purple.

I can feel it when I pinch the tip of it and I can wiggle it more and more each day so I think I'm good.

But seriously, when was the last time you did something like that? I couldn't even remember the last time it happened.
