Generations of...

I've always been told that my mom was a klutz, and when she was young she was called "Grace" as a joke. I still notice that she is quite "graceful." (Yeah right!) Have no fear for the future the klutz gene has been passed down the next generation. Over the past couple weeks I have noticed I'm more like my mother than i thought!
The night of my graduation I was charging my phone just like normal people do. I was walking out of my bedroom to go get my hair curled, and I tripped over the power cord and my phone broke right in two! I am such a klutz!
My next incident happened today. I work at the town pool and today was a cleaning day, where we got everything ready for it to open on Thursday. Well they were filling it up and it was not even close to full so I decided to walk into the pool and get my feet wet. Well I slipped into the water. I started laughing at myself of course but I had to get out, so I started climbing the slope that I had gone down and I slid back down, this was the pattern for about 3 more times. I went again and I got the air knocked out of me and I just sat in the water. By then all the people that were around got out their camera phones and were recording this scenario! Then one of my friends was like " I can get the rescue hook and get you out Chelsi!" Well the hook only works when you weigh nothing in the water. I wasn't really in the water so I still weighed A LOT! So he couldn't get me out! Then my other friend tried to help him and they started pulling me out. But the slope was really steep and they couldn't do it without my help, but I was laughing so hard i couldn't but I tried to focus. They pulled and I tried to put my knees under me and I just kept slipping! Finally I realized that I had to worm crawl and get up. It was so funny! I crawled all the way to the top! Now there is a recording of me going around Duncan!
So needless to say, I am the new "Grace!" The torch has been passed down to me! I have scratches all over my body because of the pool! It was freaking hilarious!

too funny! haha. I like this story, but I think it is probably on Youtube by now, right? Maybe we can work on getting that video embedded on your blog. That would be AWESOME! Grace, when are you going to come visit NY?
