Mostly about Fantasy genre: Special emphasis on Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and Deed of Paksennarion. Music, poetry and random ramblings. Actually, anything is up for grabs. Probably not politics, but everything else is fair game. Please ignore al

Yes, I am, indeed the Queen of the Klutz People. Allow me to explain:

I have four visible scars from curling irons. I have three visible scars from hot glue guns. I have two scars across my fingers from shutting my fingers in a car door. I have a slice across another finger where I deeply cut my finger with a butter knife while attempting to slice a lime. (guess why) I have a 3 inch scar on my leg where I cut my leg shaving in the ninth grade. I have a lovely scar where I burned and stabbed my leg with a wood burning tool. I have second degree burns from ramen noodles. I have random bruises from God knows where.

And today? I have three bruises -- only one of which I can identify. I attacked an open drawer with my shin. The other two are, well, random. Then I knocked my head against a door. While dizzy, I stepped on a pair of scissors. Not a large cut, but any cut on the foot is a pain. I then cut myself shaving this evening. This one was a bleeder. While trying to find a band-aid, I got a paper cut.

I am not going to get out of bed for the rest of the night. Perhaps tomorrow I can get from point A to point B without hurting myself.

Will your epitaph read: Here lies SHE, brutally attacked by inanimate objects?

You're not alone. I can trip over contour lines.

Not bad. I may have to use it.

You know, I actually went to a lecture once about how the inanimate objects were, in fact, out to get mankind. I didn't believe him until I started thinking about all of my injuries. Either they're out to get me, or my subconscious is a masochist.

People always accuse me of having my head up in the clouds. Perhaps you're a dreamer too. Reality just doesn't cut it, or maybe it does.

Doc, you just got John Lennon stuck in my head. Thanks. I'll be humming "They say I'm a dreamer" for the rest of the night.

I do have a habit of day dreaming when I should be paying attention to things around me. I just don't see why it always has to end in pain! Reality bites!

LOL! I'm sorry you're such a klutz but I'm laughing because you're so funny! You're not the only one who burns herself with a curling iron, I do it everyday! ouch!


Mark, funny stuff!

The sad thing is, two of the visible burn scars are on my legs where I dropped the curling iron. Since then, I switched to a straitening iron that doesn't expose my skin to hot metal.

And my day isn't getting any better. We had a fire alarm go off in the dorm and what does the Klutz Queen do? She stubs her toe. I don't care if the whole building burns down, I am NOT getting out of bed again!

I think those dastardly coutour lines raise themselves up just to see me trip. I also regularly get tripped over by ants with big feet. Luckily, I've mastered the pratfall so at least I make falling over look good.

Every girl I know has, at some point, maimed herself with a curling iron. I myself did the car door thing today, right after parking and stepping out onto a busy street. I then leaned on the car and crossed my arms and, while trying to extract myself, invented a new expression which I call "please-God-end-the-pain-or-kill-me-now" casual. I think some of the passing females were impressed.

As far as the second degree burns go, that's what you get for eating Ramen. No human should go near that stuff, or Chef Boyardee.

Look on the bright side, though: You might be clumsy, but scars are hot.

I get cuts and bruises all the time that I dont know where they came from.  I dont even realize half of them until I see the blood.

But Clumsy?  I conceed the title to you.

Very true... though not every girl has the scars on her legs...

It does sound impressive.

I'm a PCS (poor college student)-- Sometimes all I can afford is ramen. My friends did joke about having to cook it for me, adding ice, and then handing it to me.

But Clumsy? I conceed the title to you.


I think the nurses in student health services are about to give me a crown. Looking back through my chart the nurse started laughing. My visits include "Dropped bunk bed on wrist", "Burn on neck from curling iron", "large gash on finger", "second degree ramen noodle burns", among my other illnesses.

But would you believe I've never broken a bone? Must be all that milk I drank growing up.

Funny stuff. I was trying to come up with something positive to say. Some silver lining in all of it. Something to make you feel better, but sorry, you are a klutz.

How long is the hair on your legs? Most women shave their legs not curl it.

I do shave my legs... that's why I have so many razor scars! I only drop the curling iron on my legs.

There is no silver lining... except I get to make people laugh by telling them what a klutz I am.

So am I, and I feel your pain, but I decided long ago I'd rather starve.

If this happens to me on the way to choir, so help me...

I've actually realized it's better to buy a loaf of cheap bread and a jar of peanut butter... until the peanut butter attacked.
