The mad housewife broke my toe!

Posted on October 17, 2008

So yesterday I had one of the blondest moments of my life! We have friends over every Thursday for a potluck dinner and to watch The Office. Well, I stopped at the grocery store on my way home to pick up a few things. On my way to the checkout lane, I was passing by the wine aisle. I don’t know about you, but I like to try different wines based on the cool labels. The label on this particular bottle of chardonnay totally caught my eye, so I went over and picked it up to get a closer look. I was thoroughly amused, so I decided I had to try this wine. As I went to put it in my cart, the bottle slipped out of my hands and landed smack on my toes! Talk about PAIN!! I cannot even describe the pain other than to say it silenced me - I couldn’t move, talk, scream -  nothing! (Which was probably a good thing considering I was in public). A young employee came to my rescue and picked up the bottle (which didn’t even break). I made it home, and after a few hours, my toe was completely swollen and purple. So I’d like you all to meet “the culprit” that broke my toe:

You have to admit the bottle is pretty amusing, huh? Ah the stupidity of our lives sometimes! :)

    that’s hysterical. i ALWAYS pick wine based on the label. luckily none of them have attacked me yet. i’m surprised you didn’t photograph an empty bottle becuz you drank the bottle to ease the pain. i would have.

    Haha! Although I’m sorry to hear of your pain, it does make for a great story! Next time you see Christie, ask her about the night I broke my toe! Talk about a dumb blonde moment.

    Owch…I like the way you’re thinking though. You know you’re really a blogger when you drop a bottle of wine on your toe and immediately think, hmm…I could blog about this.

    Twitter told me you shot a wedding this morning too…I bet that was fun with a sore tootsie.

    awwww…poor Kelly!!! I LOVE the wine label. I do the same thing- look for cool labels or bottle shapes/colors. :) So did you really break your toe?
