constanceI spent so much time reading up on the James Frey scandal* this morning that I left myself with half an hour to take the dog out, feed everyone, clean out the litterbox, bathe, and get dressed; and I was in such a rush drying off after my bath (and let's not forget, here, my self-proclaimed status as The Clumsiest Person in the World) that I hit a shelf holding a votive candle, the thing came down into the cast-iron tub and smashed into a hundred pieces, one largish of which I stepped on while trying to regain my balance, and after slapping some suture tape, a couple of band-aids, and a gauze pad on the cuts on my foot, I just went on with my attempt not to be late to work and made it in somehow.
Except man, my foot hurts. Also I am afraid to remove the band-aids because there's blood everywhere and have I mentioned I am a big baby?

* I just heard about it this morning, but don't worry, people-you-know-who-you-are, I'm not going to philosophize. After mulling it over for most of the day, this is what I've decided: I had a middlingly low opinion of Frey's thoroughly unappealing-to-me writing before I heard about this, and my opinion hasn't really changed now that I know that A Million Little Pieces is a work of fiction.
And that, said John, is that.
