the most successful moment of my life

i wear heels.

good ones.

in a restaurant.

i wear them front of house to back

in the kitchen

in the dining room

out on the patio.

i spill things.

i carry things.

i work with guests.

i do it in heels.

anything the boys can do, i can do it, too....in better shoes.

so two days ago

i'm stepping out the kitchen

in a new pair of heels

carrying a mug of coffee

a notebook

two books

a pen

my phone

and probably other things

and i slip.

woop!

i catch my balance.

i'm also wearing a dress, a pretty one.

up goes the coffee, 

a long, arching line through the air

down it comes

a sure splatter and mess for the rest of the night

i move.

in mere seconds

like a true lady

i avoid a major coffee spill demise.

the coffee splatters all over the side floor.

VICTORY!

i pump my fist in the air and immediately look to see if anyone saw me.

one did.

ryan.

and he laughs.

i woot.

VICTORY!
