This is not a greek moment. It is just an embarrassing moment. On Wednesday February 13th, 2002, my birthday, I was meeting my mother for dinner and a play. I was crossing the street to get to the restaurant on time. Somehow, I fell in the middle of the street. I'm still not sure how it happened, but I wound up on the ground on my right side from my knee to my shoulder. I picked myself up afraid that I might have injured myself. A man comes over and asks me if I am ok. I said that I was more embarrassed than hurt and smiled. Out of the blue this woman starts laughing,"HA HA you fell down!" in a sing song voice that sounds like Nelson from The Simpsons. I give her a look like WTF. Then another guy says,"That's not funny. Now if you fell on your face, cracked you head open, and were bleeding on the street that would be funny."

I walked away as quickly as possible. Who knows what these people are capable of doing?! There really are some freaks in New York City!
