That bear story reminds me of Outlander when the hero fights off a bear with a fish.
Cash, that is too awful for words. How heart-breaking.
Spidra, I've been thinking about it, and I think the difference between Bitches and Natter (for me) is (A) If I think "Oh, this is TMI" then I usually go to Bitches (B) some Bitches can't keep up with Natter and post mainly there, although sometimes the thread speed differential is negligible, and (C) I think because Bitches started out as the pornyesque thread, people revealed more there, and now the HoYay and Spikedrool has translated to more emotional openness and closeness there, in a lot of ways, for many people.
It's a slight difference, I think. And there can be a lot of cross-pollination. For instance, I would white-font a (hypothetical) OMG my braces got stuck in my date's zipper, please advise or a "my emotional trauma X has me stabbin', SOB" in Bitches, whereas Natter is more call-and-response.
Mostly. I think.
Anyway.
Me too. If I'm walking down a sidewalk, I can't look up to the sky without losing my balance
For reals, I have to look at stairs that I am decending. I'm screwed if I have to carry anything unless one hand is free to steady myself with the handrail.

I can walk down stairs without holding the handrail (if my hands are full), but I hate to do it and I walk a lot more carefully.
Then there are times I think the last step is not a step or vice-versa, but that's a poor-depth-perception issue rather than a balance issue.
I've mentioned this before, but I once failed a sobriety test (the kind where they make you walk a line, etc.) while completely sober.
I'm not exactly graceful on my feet but I'm a lot better on skates. Odd, but true.

This is a real concern of mine when driving at night.
holy anthills y'all. lots of them. I only did the front yard, but no longer I got all stung up. I only had on kamikazee ant while I was spraying and he got me on my toes. ouchy!
I am not weeding without full covered feet and hands anytime soon.

I'm not quite that bad (although I've never actually tested it ...) but the sidewalks in town here are primarily old brick or cobblestone, and I have to watch my feet constantly to avoid falling on my face.
Happy Birthday Emmett!
Theresa and tommy must be my siblings! I cannot balance either! I actually have this weird habit of tapping the front of the stair with my foot as I go down if I cannot look at my feet. In college, my BFF asked me why I always walked with my head down, like I was worried, and I told her no-- I am looking at my feet!
Fire ants, msbelle? Those are the only critters I will go ahead and poison. Hate. We used to get some kind of powdery stuff to sprinkle around the nests to wipe them out. Sadly, another nest would eventually crop up somewhere else.
