Life lesson #6648: Paper is slippery when you step on it.

Life lesson #6649: Other objects can hide under papers.

Life lesson #6650: Oyster crackers fly very well.

The long version: Last night I got up from my desk, stepped on a pile of paper, tripped over either the papers or the sandal hiding under the pile, twisted my foot, and managed to toss a handful of oyster crackers all over the room. I wound up sitting on the floor thinking "Well, that was interesting." Juddging by the results, oyster crackers fly even better than Cocoa Puffs.

Therefore, I had damn well better stop procrastinating and get the piles of paper off the floor, or I had better watch where I put my feet when I get up from my desk. Or both.
