I slipped on a cliche the other day, a banana peel.

Sometimes life just hands you a cliche, all tied up and ready to process.    And that's just what happened to me.  
I slipped on a banana peel.  Yup, a banana peel.   The real thing, all squishy and yucky and very recognizable as a banana.   Luckily for me I was returning a cart into the store so had something I could hold onto, or I would have, as the saying goes, gone "Ass over teakettle".    It just so happened that there was a store employee right there, and she hurried up and got a paper towel and wiped up the banana.   I didn't even get a picture of it with my phone, darn.   Of course I was just a tad shook.   But the employee managed to get rid of the evidence so even if I was a touch on the litigious side I wouldn't have any evidence.   But I was just fine, it wasn't the stores fault that some idiot dropped or threw a banana away, right where people walk.   And if it was going to happen to someone, at least I wasn't hurt.   A child or elderly person could have been injured and that would not have been a good thing.

And I now have my own claim to fame, I slipped on a cliche, a banana peel.
