This makes the list of Top Clutzy Moments.

Well, more than a moment really. About 10 minutes or so. Long enough for me to become hysterical.
So, I leave for dance early (walking) figuring I'll just wander Rite Aid awhile. My dance bag is heavy, and hurts my shoulders so I kept switching sides. I enter Rite Aid, and see a sale for reeses. Needless to say, there was no need for browsing and a bought a few packets. I decided I would just sit in the lobby of the theater and consume my candy to pass the time.
I start to go the regular way, when I realize there's construction blocking my path. I debate climbing through the ruckus, then figured I'd better not risk falling over and decide to just walk down the other side and go up through the parking lot (like I really am supposed to anyways). I do so, then coming up the alleyway I switch my bag again. But as I'm tossing it on my shoulder...well, I dunno wth happened but I missed and my bag went into the plants. Big plants, which are growing out of a hill covered with god-only-knows what. Bag is pretty close, so I set down my reeses and go over to grab it. See where this is going?
I end up falling head first onto the bag, and further into the plants and down the hill. Somehow in my frantic flailing, one of the giant stems of the giant plants becomes tightly entwined around my ankle. Couldn't move my leg. Couldn't pull hard enough to rip plant or uproot it, either. HOWEVER, the stems that I am clinging onto to be up forward a bit instead of laying in the dirt and yuck are very very close to uprooting. So I can't pull myself up with them. And I can't just twist around and climb normally due to my ankle being trapped.
I layed there contemplating my predicament, unsure what to do. I then hear buzzing.
Bees.
Several bees had attatched themselves to me. Of course, I don't stop and look at what kind of bees they are and automatically assume the worst *GROUND HORNETS* I scream hysterically. And scream. and scream. I get sweater off (had leo on underneath) and chuck it away from me. There's another bee on my shoulder. I realize it's only a bumble, and flick it away but still continue yelling. I then realize there's the icky little beetle things crawling ALL OVER the ground. Then one got on my leg. I try desperately (while still screaming) to pull myself up yet again. Didn't work. Plant uprooted and I'm now practically completely laying down in the dirty beetle nastyness. I give up with screaming and begin to cry. Not little quiet silent tears either. I sobbed and I swore and I was getting desperate. Then FINALLY people begin to show up! OH HALLELUJAH! One of the mothers heard me, and long story short - saved me. Just as I'm pulled from my buggy grave ALL the little kids shows up with a happy "Hi Miss Bizzy!" Happiness turned to shock as they realized I was crying. I assured them I was fine, and then went into the bathroom to collect myself. I then lingered a little longer than normal alone in the lobby, still not quite ready to face people. Once I've got it together, got my dance shorts on (good thing I went out of the ordinary and wore sweatpants to change out of...they were all muddy!) and moped a bit, I went up stairs. After class was over and Nicky was taking me home she had me explain what happen, which by that point I could do while laughing (the parents of course had felt the need to tell her then I fell in a hole). It wasn't a hole, it was a hill! Of course, there's a nice hole there now where I tumbled through the gigantical god forsaken plants. I think I'm going to uproot them all tommorow. Just you wait and see.

And that would be the story. That's gotta make the top of the list of all the stupid things I've done. Why does this happen to me? Ugh. It sucks.
