Water, water everywhere…and not a drop to drink!

Well, I haven’t had much to write about lately…with the holiday weekend and all, I figured everyone would be taking some time off, so I figured I should too. Anyway, I have been struggling to find something to write about…but, as luck should have it….I recently found some inspiration….meaning I did something goofy :P

Here goes, I was innocently standing at the water cooler filling up my cup with the sparkling, cool refreshment when all of a sudden, my cup launched itself out of my hand. It hurled itself to the floor and landed before I could catch it. Then, a huge spout of water exploded from the cup. It was….well….it was raining upwards!!! Of course, water went everywhere….and as my luck would have it, I happened to be standing and looking down at the exact spot where the cup landed. What does this mean for the innocent victim you ask…well, it means that I got really wet!! :D My liquid, cool refreshment splashed all over my jeans, shirt, and one of my shoes. (I’m not sure how I managed to miss the foot nearest the incident…but I’ve learned not to ask questions…just to accept my clumsiness :) ) Anyway, during the water explosion, the water went so high that the top of my head got wet! When I’m clumsy…I’m really clumsy ;) I looked around to see if anyone saw what I had done, and in doing so, noticed that I was now standing in a puddle. I hurridly cleaned it up and thought I was home free until a coworker rounded the corner. She looked at me and commented me on my jeans. She thought they were the distressed ones because of all the water spots all over my pants. I just said thanks and practically ran back to my cube.

I am happy to say that I no longer have any water spots and I am definitely squeaky clean for the day. However, I do not recommend taking a shower at the office water cooler on a daily basis. People might start to talk ;)

Oh, and I was successful in finally filling up my cup with water and getting it back to my cube without spilling a drop….the sencond time around!!
