I FELL ASLEEP! Right then and there! Totally zonked! I don't even know if I actually hit the reply button! I don't think I have ever done that before.
Have you ever been so tired that you just fell asleep like that?

Day 3 of "Back to Bloggin" is to upload a past post title that I liked and explain why I liked it.
Here is one that I liked Writing:
What? No Stunt Double?
I promised this morning that I would have another post tonight sharing my weekend, but something happened today that had me cracking up ...at myself! If you saw it, you would have certainly been laughing AT me and I would not have blamed you one bit.
As I mentioned, today was my first day of my new job. It's a nice little job that I am very excited about. I was so nervous about making a good impression, that I did not sleep a wink last night and let me tell you, the alarm sounded much, much earlier than I wanted.
After sorting out a few things and having a few gulps of much needed coffee, I got settled at my new desk and then it happened. I felt like I was in a re-run of the "I Love Lucy Show" only, I was not Lucy.
I was her stand in.
I can hear the director now...
"Ok. Lucy, I want you to reach over the arm rest of your chair, down into that tote bag and try to grab the bottle of water that is just out of your reach. Good. CUT! Bring in the stunt double...."
Then it is me in the chair and in the next instant, the chair tips, wheels fly out to the side, my feet and the legs of the chair are above my head and I am crashing onto the ground. "CUT! Bring Lucy back in!"
Lucy = "Whaaaaaaaaa! Riiiiiiiiiicckkkyyy!!!"
Me = "Ouch! Bpffffftttttttttt....hhahahahahaha!"
That's is correct. I literally fell out of my chair!
I am so glad nobody saw it happen because I would never have lived that one down!
I'm sure that my neighbor in the next office has no clue that there is a comic genius in the works, mere feet away. I'll keep that gem for months from now when I can say "Did I ever tell you what happened on my first day?"
For now, I am finishing my tea and grabbing the heating pad for my sore back.
*In my best Troy McClure voice*: "I'm not a stunt double, but I once played one in an office...you may have seen me in "Musical Chairs For Dummies" or "Stop, Drop and Roll, an Office Worker's Nightmare".
Not to worry stunt doubles, I'm going to keep my day job.

I had a hard time finding a title of a post that was catchy! I do have a few...but not many. I have to work on that!
