The Ailment of the Day: Klutziness

Have you ever had one of those days, where it seems like you one of the biggest klutzes on earth? I know I have. Some days I can be extremely clumsy and klutzy and today was one of those days.

The first klutz moment of the day occurred when I went in to work at MARC early this morning. I was preparing the feed for the harbor pups and trying to stretch out the fish gruel, so we wouldn't have to make a new batch before the feed. So there I was at the counter using a spatula to get out as much fish gruel from the containers as I possibly could. Then....SPLAT!!!!! ...the measuring cup with the fish gruel fell of the counter and splattered the floor, my boots, and my pants. Needless to say, we ended up having to make a new batch of fish gruel. Then only a for minutes later while still preparing the feed I had a second klutz (or just plain dumb) moment. Some of the seals get 1g of salt added to their food, so I was trying to do that. However, instead of adding the 1g baggies of salt, I added the 5g baggies of salt to two of the feeds before noticing my mistake. Thus, those feeds had to be emptied and new fish gruel poured. Not my brightest morning mind you.

Then my klutziness came back this evening when I was making dinner. I was making mac n' cheese and trying to pour the macs into my bowl of water, but while opening the package proceeded to spill part of the package on the counter. But wait there's more...after the macs were cooked I poured the powder into the bowl and came back to my room, plopped on by bed, and settled in for dinner. I then tried mixing the powered around to complete the mac n' cheese. However, the genius in me spilled powder all over my comforter. After cleaning that up, I proceed to drop macs on my bed, on my desks, and on my shirt multiple times. Yeah, it takes a REALLY amazing person to accomplish all of that.

Well, that was my day of klutziness. Hopefully I will be better for the rest of the night and next few days. There is one good thing that comes out of all this: it provides great amusement for me and the people around. :D 

Hope y'all enjoyed my stories and if you’re brave enough tell me all about some of your favorite klutz moments it will be greatly appreciated. I know I have way more than just today's, but I'll save those for another day.

"That's All Folks"

P.S. The countdown for being home is now at 3 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
