UNBELEIVABLEY, folks we knew were in the outside bar and witnessed my tumble. I was completely sober, but who would believe?
This reminds me of a previous embarrassment. I joined a health club that had very clean windows. I walked on the machine, I rode on the bike, I stroked on the rowing machine and minded my own business. When I was done and headed toward the towel bar I walked right into the glass wall in front of me. I turned around expecting to see everyone laughing and instead everyone was looking at the rug and holding it in. Jersey people can be kind.
