A Klutzy Day at the Gym With Holly Dagger

When I mentioned I was a dancer, I did not mean a ballerina. Yesterday proved to be an interesting and clumsy day at the gym for me. I have had a migraine for several days in a row now and wasn't at the top of my game but taught Zumba class anyways.

For starters, I normally open the door that connects the locker room to the gym slowly in case someone is on the other side but yesterday I did not for some reason. Lo and behold, there was one of my students on the other side and I accidentally smacked them in the face. Luckily, they were okay but nevertheless, that was my first mistake.

The second incident of the night occurred during Zumba class. As I said, I was not feeling well so I was having a hard time concentrating and was messing up a bit. All of the sudden I saw something crawl across the floor out of the corner of my eye and started screaming bloody murder. It was a huge black spider that was a little smaller than my fist crawling across the floor towards me. This of course made all the girls in the class scream and I had to go out into the gym and get a big hairy man to take care of the spider.

After Zumba class, I went out to the front desk to chat and return my key. I then proceeded to trip backward into an easel that had a big poster board on it with pockets that contained slips of paper. Somehow I managed to change in the locker room and exit the gym with out any more mishaps- thankfully!
