If you watch Desperate Housewives, you’re probably familiair with the character Susan, she’s is a huge klutz. I’m like her mini-version, a mini klutz.

Today I had to go to the dentist and because she always manages to make my gums bleed so much it wouldn’t look bad in a horror movie, I decided to do some comfort shopping afterwards. After 4 hours of serious shopping - I really needed all that stuff - it was time to get some food. Me and my hubby agreed on meeting at our favourite Indonesian take-away and I stopped on the pavement to cross the street. I told the woman behind me to go ahead and move along. She answered: “I would like to enter the store, but you’re standing right in front of the door”. Gosh I’m so clumsy

A few years ago I went to a business appointment and wore jeans for the first time in quite a while (being a skirt person). The sun was shining and the appointment went well so I was walking home in a happy mood. While walking through a super crowded shopping street a guy came up to me and said: “Excuse me, can I say something to you?” I replied: “Sure!”, wondering what it would be about. He explained: “Your scarf is so long that it’s hanging between your legs and comes out at the back, it looks like you’ve got a tail” I stumbled: “Thank you for telling me ”. And all I could think about were all the people who witnessed “my tail”… That long scarf had to go!

But then again, all of this isn’t so bad compared to the stories on: www.fmylife.com
