I guess I'll go to the mail place, stop and get a baked potato and some scallions, then come home, eat, and do more commentary.

Faced that most difficult of First World problems again this morning. The free Starbucks machine on my floor was broken and I had to go up a flight to get a cuppa.

Horrible, DR John G.

I hope at least the elevator was working so you didn't have to WALK UP.

I would have preferred the stairs. Instead you have to badge out, wait for the elevator, badge in on the new floor, get your coffee, badge out, ride down and badge in again.

That sounds terribly annoying. Does it mean you are not allowed to take the stairs? I prefer the stairs whenever possible.

I always take the stairs when able. Up to 10 or so stories.

I am glad the stairs do not require a badge to use them.

Well, I'm off to Seattle! I'm meeting my friend David at his work up there, then we'll hang out for a while, then go to the theater.

Be back later!

Have fun.

My tale:

I went to the store and was able to get the parking spot closest to the store, not only that but I was able to "pull through" so I was facing out and my passenger door was nearest the store.

The car next to me was parked so the rear of that car was next to the front of mine

vixmom · « **Reply #96 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:19:54 PM »

I came out of the store with my shopping, opened the passenger door and dropped the packages inside and then walked around the front to get in the driver's side

vixmom · « **Reply #97 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:20:51 PM »

And then I was lying on the alsphalt with all the wind knocked out of me and my glasses somewhere not on my face

vixmom · « **Reply #98 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:21:47 PM »

My heel had caught the edge of a sewer grate I hadn't noticed, I turned my ankle and went down

I was now lying behind the wheels of the car next to me and heard the transmission shift and realized to my horror that the driver was in the car , hadn't seen me and was about to back out

vixmom · « **Reply #101 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:24:15 PM »

Suddenly there was a man there banging on the trunk of the car shouting "stop!!"

vixmom · « **Reply #102 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:25:29 PM »

By the Grace of God, a young couple had been coming out of the store right behind me and saw me go down and realized what was happening

vixmom · « **Reply #103 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:25:58 PM »

The guy dropped his bag and just ran to stop the car from moving, putting himself in danger of being run over as well

vixmom · « **Reply #104 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:27:30 PM »

The two of them helped me up, found my glasses ( which somehow did not break) and got me in my car

vixmom · « **Reply #105 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:28:24 PM »

I was so baffled and shocked I never asked them their names, I'm not even sure if I thanked them properly

vixmom · « **Reply #106 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:29:42 PM »

But one thing is for certain, if they hadn't been there, and he hadn't done that I would not be typing this because that tire would have gone right over my neck

vixmom · « **Reply #107 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:31:05 PM »

My left ankle is a bit swollen and I am wearing an ankle brace. I have 'road rash" on the palms of my hands , elbows and chin

vixmom · « **Reply #108 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:31:35 PM »

And I am grateful as all get out

I'm surprised you felt able to drive home. What a shock!

Jeanne · « **Reply #114 on:** May 17, 2019, 03:38:33 PM »

Surely there's someone who could take your place.

DR Vixmom, how frightening! I'm happy those people were there. Perhaps they are angels and you will never see them again. I believe one helped me in 2013 when this affliction struck me and I needed serious help on Broadway.

I was at the shops just a half mile from home, I pretty much did it on auto pilot.

Yes, but perhaps you could rest and heal a bit first?

Much as I detest and long to read the obituary of President Trump, I do agree with him about Bill de Blasio. He's been as lousy a mayor as Giuliani, and I blame the New York Animal Care Center euthanasia and silent kills on the cronies he's put in charge.
