Snowflake Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Years ago, a group of us at work dressed like hippies for Halloween. I went to a trendy store at the mall and bought some extreme bell bottoms, tie-dyed shirt and a big belt with lots of rivets in it. I also bought a long wing of straight blond hair that I wrapped with a headband and an old pair of platforms to complete the look. Total cost of costume? About $30. Flash forward to this afternoon, and I'm in the utility room putting the bottle returns into bags when I feel a horrendous pop in my lower back and suddenly feel "different". Oh no, my BACK, I don't need to be laid up with a pulled something-or-other.... I slowly stand up, and realize I can breathe deeper...and that my pants are traveling down my rear. Yep, that cheap belt gave way, ripping like a fruit roll-up! Sheesh... I'm okay! Made it to the grocery store and fixed an alarming dinner, as posted earlier. Oh yeah, and the Wings WON! On to game seven! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annette Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Oh no - so glad it was that pop instead of the pop you thought it was at first. I know when you hurt your back you can be pretty much useless. My lower back aches thinking about the poping noise. Glad you had a successful shopping trip and good dinner - sounds like a good day.
