Wipeout, pre-flight
August 3rd, 2004
Last Thursday on my way to class, I encountered my grad school friends Matt, Maggie, and Zach:
I had a rolling suitcase and a few minutes to spare, so I casually propped it against a scaffolding pole and leaned against (sat on) it to chat with them. But within five minutes, the luggage barreled out from under me and I completely wiped out onto the ground.
Zach managed to capture a blurry “after” shot of me laughing hysterically. I think the people walking by for freshman orientation were really impressed! If anything, I calmed their fears about having to be suave and savvy in New York City. Now they know that there’s at least one person nerdier than them.
