You know, I didn’t realize just how uncomfortable I am with heights, until I just now looked down from the office chair I’m sitting on. Wow! That floor is pretty far down. Now I’m starting to think that that old commercial “I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up” wasn’t so funny after all…
Try it for yourself. Pull out a chair, sit down, and then gaze downwards, until you can clearly see the floor below. It may help if your chair has arms, so as to grip for safety when you start to go woozy.
Funny, I’ve never felt this way on the sofa, but it reclines, so I’m waaaay back from visible vertigo issues. Plus that Howie Mandel is so darn funny, it takes my mind right off of plummeting from the comfort of a couch.
Now I’m going to have to rethink the barstools we have at our elevated kitchen island nook. I’m either going to have to install large fluffy pillows around them, or seat belts. What kind of a headline would THAT make?
“Man Meets Maker Munching Macaroni – Impact Dents Linoleum…”
No way! Not this cowboy! I’m going to steal a page from the Japanese, and eat on the floor from here on out. Legs crossed, meditative, and barefoot – I’m going to leave elevation to giraffes and daredevils.
Chow for now!!

Oh brother! Albino snakes, now a fear of chairs? Or is it a fear of sitting? Good gravy!
Not to worry honey, go ahead and fall, you wont dent the floor in the kitchen, it's hardwood!
PS Hmm, perhaps instead of large fluffy pillows, a stiff white jacket of some kind with lots of clasps may be in order!

A crisp white jacket? Like a doctor would wear? Isn't that like impersonating a professional, or something?
If you need to believe that, you keep believing Mr.!

What with my broad shoulders, and brisk pecs, I think I could pull off wearing white at this time of year...
Oh brother! How come you make me feel so exhausted?!
