me = gazelle

i've been pretty good at staying on my feet lately, but tonight, i was walking down the hill from my apt when i turned my left ankle. i used my ankle saving technique, taking off all weight from it before i kill it. as i did this, i managed to completely lose all sense of balance and wipe out. my knee is bruised and a bit scraped, my butt and front of my pant leg have grass stains on it. and there goes my pride, rolling down the hill.

it reminds me of monday when i was about to get on the bridge to go to school, and a bike was coming down my way. the side walk narrowed and while trying to avoid pedestrians in front of me and the biker, i road off the sidewalk into on coming traffic. luckily traffic was heavy and they weren't moving very fast. i keep wondering when my luck will run out.
