I could win the funniest home videos if this had been caught on tape.

On Tuesday of this week I was about to leave for work. I had put my bags in the truck and had gone back in to tell Kathy and Glenn bye. We had a bad storm front coming through and when I had been out minutes earlier there were just a few drops of rain starting. When I went back out, it was raining sheets of rain in a heavy downpour the winds were incredible. My yard was flooding. The news said this front was pushing through at 60-65 mph.
As I stood in the garage deciding what to do, I figured I would just make a run for it. Traffic backs up very quickly and with these storms would only be worse so with coffee in hand I took off. I have to walk to the truck in the grass as I park right on the edge of the driveway.
As I got right to the truck and reached for the door handle both feet went right out from under me straight above my head. I landed on the middle of my back and banged my head on the ground. Luckily I was on the wet slippery grass and that added a cushion of sorts- better than concrete I guess.
So after shaking the shock off, I got up and walked back to the garage. When I went inside Kathy started laughing. I don't think I have ever seen her laugh that hard. My clothes were soaked. I had to go undress in the garage becuase my clothes were wet/nasty and covered with grass/mud. Even my undershirt was muddy on the back where I had landed. I was hurting a little but even had to laugh at the whole incident.
The best part of the whole thing- I didn't spill my coffee. Somehow, as I went airborn landed on my back I balanced my coffee cup such that I didn't spill it. YES!!! I love my coffee and I guess it shows!!!!
