I keep reading that clumsiness accompanies pregnancy. My friend Ted shared that he always knew when his wife was pregnant because she started dropping things. I had escaped this clumsy fate, until today. While having lunch in a restaurant with Ted and another male coworker, I spilled an entire glass of ice water. The waitress handed my plate over the cup. I didn't correctly gauge how quickly I was lowering the plate as I brought it down and across the table. My reaction time is completely gone. Actually, I don't even think I had a reaction other than to laugh to cover my embarrassment. Thankfully both Ted and Lorimer are understanding men. They laughed with me as we cleaned up the mess. Luckily neither Lorimer nor I were soaked by the water. And fortunately, it was water--not tea or Dr. Pepper.
