A way of saying how we wre all alike: We put our pants on One Leg At A Time.

Well, I always had to be different.

Yeah, I put my pants on One Leg At A Time . . . . just both in the same leg hole.

Great post! I like to say, "I have my maid put my pants one leg at a time like everyone else." Ha! If only I could get one to work for free.

Your pants are called skirts? Just teasing :-D

Okay, I'll call them that! (Rather than 4x Lg pants).

I hate it when that happens, it makes it so much harder to walk. You have to take tiny little steps & it takes forever to get anywhere! And don't even think about the stairs. :-P

Being 6 foot 3 1/2 tall, gravity is something I take very serious. I have found that putting one's jeans on one leg at a time in the closet while standing up is not conducive to preventing bruises and damage to the shelves, so after nearly 10 years, I finally admitted defeat. Now I sit on the chair or edge of the bed to put my pants on. It is very rare that a man receives a "violence at home pamphlet" when he goes to the Dr. But yes, the nurse gave me two of them on separate occasions thanks to bruises and cuts.

Amazingly, this simple change has prevented me from face planting in the tile multiple times! BTW, my balance is so fouled up, I can't even stand on one leg for a second! Now, once sitting, I put both legs on at the same time, it's an AMAZING concept!

I am 6' tall. I always tell people I have further to fall so I have to be extra careful. Do you find that being tall, you have time to think while you're falling? I usually think, "oh, this is going to hurt", then Crash! And it hurts.

You've got two inches on me, so I have less time to think. For me it is, "Whoa! Tha---Oh! @#$^%*(^%##!!!! OUCH!! $%^(*^%#^$##!!!
