Confirmed: I'm having a Stooges day

For the uninitiated, you'll know that you're having a Stooges day if the following occurs:
1. You reach for something and your hand misses it, causing the item to fall to the floor;
2. When you bend over to pick it up, you hit your head on the edge of a table;
3. You stand back up, clutching your wounded head -- and notice that you still haven't picked the item up.
It's foolproof. If this happens to you, rest assured: you are having a Stooges day. That exact scenario just happened to me, so I know for sure that I'm having a Stooges day.

When this occurs, all you can do is move slowly for the rest of the day. It won't work, it won't prevent you from experiencing further horror -- but it might help just a tiny bit.
