Oh glorious sunny day. Think I'll put on my sandals and walk over to the library.

Not so fast there, partner. Do you think you're ready for such tricky footwear?

Apparently not. As I approached the corner to cross the street, I noticed a cyclist coming up to the intersection and a handful of other pedestrians waiting for the light and in all the confusion of forward motion and other people, sunlight and cars, I went down. Normally I would laugh at myself in this situation, but today all the witnesses were kind of glaring at me unsympathetically as if they were thinking, "Could have seen that coming a mile away." I had to wait until I got home before having a little chuckle at my gazelle-like grace.
