the queen of klutz

It takes mad skillz to scatter one's salad all over one's lap, the t.v. tray, and the floor. Now I have a nice Ranch dressing stain on my pant leg.

How did I accomplish this? Dropping the Ranch salad dressing bottle into my salad bowl (a Wendy's salad bowl, which is plastic and very light), after I had just finished putting dressing on the salad and closed up the lid on the bottle.

Of course, this was nothing compared to the time I tipped a plate full of Olive Garden's linguine a la marinara onto the floor. Sauce side down.

Oh, and I've spilled liquids onto my keyboard, too. My first MS Natural keyboard died when I spilled water on it. Then I got a new MS Natural keyboard to replace the dead one. Then I spilled Sprite on it. But, miraculously, it still works. This one wouldn't come apart as easily as the other one so I had to pop off all the keys on it and clean it with Q-Tips, and do my best to soak up what soda I could in the bottom of the keyboard with Q-Tips by prying apart the top & bottom halves of the keyboard. (the screws all came out, but there was something near the space bar that held the thing together even after all the screws were removed so I couldn't take it completely apart). So, other than a sticky Alt key (I guess I missed the soda there), the rest of the keys work fine.

I find it hard to believe that a keyboard that had water spilled on it died while one that had soda spilled on it survived. Oh well.

Yup. Mad skillz, I tell you.
