i like wearing heels to work, but when i do my legs hit the pull out keyboard. i have to say it isn't the most comfortable position for 8 hours.
so i don't know if i mentioned it before, but i'm speaking at a conference at our church in april. that is why i'm trying to read the book previously mentioned (it is getting better...but i'm far from loving it). Pretty daunting task to tell you the truth. i'm excited because i know this was a God thing (too long of a story to tell you why i know), but i'm very intimidated by the task. i guess i'm scared that i'm going to take this God thing and turn it into poo. i'm not a public speaking virgin or anything like that...its just this feels like a bigger deal-like if i screw this up i'll single-handedly destroy the women at our church. okay, that was a bit over the top, but you get the idea.
so this is what i need from all of you out there. write me and tell me about the worst time when you fell on your face. that way, when i mess this up, i can still revel in the fact that i'm not as big of a loser as you. sound good?

so i was going to actually tell ya some crazy convoluted mistake I've made, which wouldn't be hard…they're many! but then i thought, wait! she just trying to prove I'm the bigger loser here…hmmm. you're a tricky little girl, Suzanne…tricky little girl!
and btw, my legs don't fit either… blasted keyboard tray!
I am sure that I don't need to tell you the times I have fallen on my face in order for you to know that I am a bigger loser. If you do fall on your face just think back to some random time back when we lived at Sam's. Being a big loser is a good thing anyway, at least that is what my mom says.
One time I got a black eye from dancing with a friend of mine at a bar.

Once I farted pretty loud in the middle of German class in Jr. High. That was embarASSing. So don't fart while you're up there, that's a good tip. I bet Dr. Haffey didn't teach you that! From what I can gather this is a women's conference. Interesting. What are you talking about? And what is this mysterious book you are hiding the identity of?
the book is "captivating" by john and stasi eldrige. and scott...you farted?! i didn't know you did such things. and you're right, never once did dr. haffey warn us about that, but probably because she or no one in her home farts.
well, if you recall, i am a very big clutz so there are many, many stories of me falling on my face in front of a lot of people. I don't know if you remember when i slipped on some ice in front of the church and fell right on my ass. Then there was the time when i was a lot younger, like in elementary, i was swinging between two desks and i kicked my legs up too far and fell backwards on the ground. hmmm, let's see, um i accidentally got my car stuck in a ditch at night one time with my friends...they still don't let me forget that, but don't tell my mom, she never found out. I can't think of anything else major, but I do run into and hit things often. The life of a clutz, what can i do. But don't worry, you'll do great, and even a little mistake is ok. you just need to learn to laugh at yourself like I have.

Once I was going to try out for the drumset position in the MSU band that plays at their basketball games. I had already had a preliminary audition, and they liked my playing, but there was another audition after that. It was down in a little practice room in the basement of the music building, and I could hear the other drummer auditioning before me. From what I heard he was pretty good, so instead of hanging around and trying my luck (and skill) I just decided that I had already been bested and I just walked away without even trying. I felt like a HUGE failure and an enormous coward...what a weenie!
