met a friend for sunday dinner today at a very nice place which shall be nameless but almost broke my neck when i stepped out of the booth, which i had forgotten or maybe never noticed was about eight inces above the floor. fortunately my guardian angels must have turned me around so i landed on my well padded bum and was able to keep my head from hitting the adjacent chairs and tables. the manager was very nice and i don't think i have any permanent damage other than a huge bruise and a bruised ego from falling down with a dress on in front of the entire restaurant
but the point is please be aware when you choose a booth that they are sometimes up high and don't end up embarrassed on the floor as i did!
