I’m nursing some bruises, scrapes and a lovely bump today after falling over the furry one’s pet steps. This is one of the dangers of being short and klutzy; makes it an iffy proposition to turn off the ceiling fan if you have to climb atop something to do it, especially if you’re a little prone to losing your balance. The furry one, of course, was really worried … about his steps … and me, too, but his steps first.

So to make me feel better, some funny falls (again, I’m thrilled the boy has no opposable thumbs with which to operate a camera). Nothing too side-splitting, though … it kinda hurts to laugh right now.

Any time I've ever had to participate in "trust falls," this is what I feared. GIF found on AcidCow.

For some dance moves, a spotter is recommended ... or at least a chiropractor on speed-dial. GIF found on AskIdeas.

We've all been there ... and it always seems to happen when you're at the best part of the dream. Waking up on the floor is not the best wake-up call. GIF found on GifBin.

This is why we can't have nice things ... and why manufacturers have to put the most insane warnings on their products because some people don't instinctively understand that doing push-ups on a stove isn't a bright idea. GIF found on gifrific.
