I was having lunch with a new friend Thursday. The conversation came around to COBRA insurance then to drug prices then to MS then to MY MS. And then to how well I’m doing with my MS. That part, frankly, took at least ten minutes.
It took so long that we ran out of time to talk about anything else. So I stood up and moved away from my chair and tripped. Then the slow plummet. Took the brunt of it on my right side.
Popped back up again and told a bystander, “You never saw that.”
New friend looked concerned, then claimed it was obvious it was the sandal’s fault.

That new friend sounds like a keeper.
KathyG – I think so. I’ll have two chances to have lunch with her this coming week. I might have to wear different sandals.
